Pistols

Pistols are a common type of weapon class in Chat. They are often dropped by pilots, police, and some types of civilians. They are typically low powered with low range and average rate of semi automatic fire, but can function well as a close quarters or backup weapon.

In Game
Class description: Pistols are typically cap guns compared to other weapons, but if you use them in close combat or as a panic gun when your primary weapon needs a reload or something, and you are being attacked at the same time, you should be OK.

The following pistols are in the game:
 * Colt 1911
 * Used for over 70 years by the US military and still used by civilians, other armies and police agencies all around the globe. This is a pistol that will never fail.
