I know most players use rifles as their primary, but I've noticed more people running pistol-only loadouts, especially for CQB games. If you've played with just a pistol, how did it compare with using an AEG or GBB rifle? Was it more challenging, more fun, or simply impractical for longer games? I'd be interested in hearing what setup has worked best for you.
Do you carry a pistol as a backup, or is it your primary airsoft gun?

I know this thread is a bit old, but I’ve been running a pistol as my primary in CQB games lately. It feels way more agile than a rifle, and reloads become a fun part of the challenge. My main struggle is range on bigger fields though. Has anyone else tried a carbine kit on their pistol to fix that?

I run pistol-only in CQB and it’s way more intense and fun. For picking a good sidearm, I’ve used https://www.bespokeairsoft.co.uk/airsoft-gun/pistols and found a gas model that’s reliable and accurate. Their range covers spring, gas, and electric, so you can easily compare. It’s a great resource for finding what fits your style.
