Pistol is great

Even starting with the double barreled shotgun with the pre-order bonus, I find myself using the pistol far longer than in most FPS games. I actually prefer it to the combat shotgun, especially once you get a scope for it.

I like the way the pistol looks, waiting to play, my game is still on the UPS truck.

But what system are you on? Some people report problems getting the Anarchy Edition stuff from PSN, etc.

How did you get the Double-Barrel Shottie for those of us who may have problems...?

I'm with you on that one. I even like the combat shotgun over the pre-order bonus double barrel. Plinking off baddies' helmets from a distance with the pistol is great fun.

I'm playing it on a PC.

On a PC, hit tab and you can select the double shotgun by clicking on it. Can't say for consoles.

Scoped pistols are really nice in corridor games because you can quickly switch between sniping and rapid fire close range defense.

I like the pistol alot... I love that shotgun even more though, you can lay waste with that thing... Not the double-barrel the other one.

I'm on the 360 and the pistol is sweet but the Combat Shotgun for close combat and Sniper for long range is my favorite. Wing-sticks for medium rage is my main weapon LOL.

The double-barrel sawed-off is just like the real deal. Deadly at close range, but the buckshot scatters far and wide if target is too far away and deals less damage.

Pistol is great! I'd say more about what fun pistol is & what it can do but it may be considered spoilers.

pistol/scope fan here as well. The ak like gun is also fine, as well as the shotgun and sniper as mentioned. Coming to this straight from R3's rich/fun weapons, I am very happy with the preformance and feel of the weapons so far, and weapon wheels for the win!

Just to Wellsprings, but loving the game so far
