Make a better Pistol or Pistol-llike weapon.

It exists as a cannon fodder killer, ammo saver, and backup backup backup gun. It is there to ensure that you always have at least something to fight with. It's not meant to be used unless you specifically want to or have no other option, both are very rare occourances. I do wish it wasn't anot energy weapon, however, but that's just taste.

I thought the chainsaw/fists were the backup backup backup "gun".

has anyone ever had to resort to the pistol? i don't think i used it once after picking up the shotgun.

The chainsaw can run out of fuel and you can't kill enemies with fist without softening them up. That's where the pistol comes in.

Me neither. The only other time I used it was in classic levels and to do the "Pin Pops a Balloon" challenge.

The funny thing is I've only ever used the pistol out of paranoia that I should save my ammo, not actually running out of ammo.

I still use the pistol regardless of the more powerful weapons. It's good for picking off low level baddies, and a laugh and a half when used to finish off bigger monsters.
