Default Best Semi Automatic Pistol (Prefrences)

Honestly with not a doubt in my mind. I use either the USP.45 Or Akimbo Magnums..

Whenever I try the Degal akimbo or the m9 Akimbo.. They seem.. Faulty at best.

Whats your prefrence.

The .44 Magnum is a revolver, not a semi-auto pistol.

Of all the semi-auto pistols I prefer the USP .45, but I use the M93.

I like all except deagle. I once went on a 9 KS with akimbo M9's. But USP is probably best bet, along w/maggies

The magnums are probably the most used and they are pretty good but I like using the akimbo m9's with my riot shield. I just wait for the other person to reload, turn around, switch weapon, or get out their semtex and then I use my fast draw speed and go BAMBAMBAMBAM and kill them.

M9, largest clip and they look badass. Magnums are great too for close-range.

USP .45 thanks to a combination of a large clip size and the longer range compared to the M9. The extra accuracy with the M9 can be nifty for akimbo, but in that situation why not just use akimbo Rafficas lol.

M9 or USP .45, but mostly the M9, I don't use silencers with semi-suto pistols, so the glitch isn't a problem for me.

I don't know why, but I never liked the Magnum in MW2.

Probably because you had to watch Ghost get shot in the head by one.

The weapon is tainted!

M9, bigger mag so prefer to usp
Closing in on 1000 kills with it.
I use it with ext mag too and when in shit as primary needs reloading switch to this and have been known to take out 4 and 5 people with it, buying me time to get the fck out of dodge. Masses of ammo in gun with ext mag.
Don't use silencer so as HBK said. I love this gun. Prolly my second fav in game behind Scar
and akimbo - NO!

USP with tac knife. Pretty accurate though I prefer the akimbo raffikers as a secondary.

FMJ USP .45. Decent range, good magazine size, hits like a brick with stopping power.

.44 Magnum FMJ if I'm not using SP, though. Smaller magazine is offset by the increased range and the ability to 2-hit kill without SP.

Never use tac knife. If you're close enough to knife, you're doing it wrong. What a stupid bloody comment. I am wrong. Also tired.

I'm not one of those dickwads that runs around tac knifing people. It's the only secondary I use the tac knife on, I prefer the Magnum or Raffica akimbo and I don't use it with M/L/C either.

After my m9 killstreakless nuke the m9 is my best friend. I do use the akimbo deagles in search for close quarters since it packs a serious punch and the switch out speed is fast. Only problem is the bucking bronko recoil but i've learnt how to stablelize it now.

I use the usp until I get the deagle, then it's deagle all the way. I have never used the m9's and just picked up the magnum quite a few times but I'll try those out after 2500 kills with the usp.

I love 'em all except the Deagle which just doesn't feel right. The magnums have insane range so would probably be my choice if forced, but they're all fun to use.
I heard that the USP suffers from fire-rate restrictions to prevent modded controller abuse, but I don't see why that wouldn't also be necessary on the M9 as well? Is it just me or does it indeed feel like you can fire faster with the M9 (by that I mean that with the USP you can press fire and nothing happens if you're quick enough).

M9 does the same damage as the USP with worse range decay and has more recoil in this game.

You get three extra bullets. Woopee.

Yeah, silenty taking out an enemy is never a viable option...noooooooo sir, its wrong. You must remain 30 meters away at all times....yup, thats it.


Its called a freaking secondary for a reason. I use my M9 w/ tac knife on my MP5k rushing class. It has a very quick pullout, and if needed can take out a couple guys real quick without them ever knowing, thus allowing me to continue rushing with my primary without the rest of the enemy team being aware. IMO a very good strategy and in no way, shape, or form could be considered "wrong".
