I never said to make them all the same, my God no that'd be awful, however it doesn't make sense that a handcannon is a viable option for ranged encounters. Each weapon has it's designated range. Scouts-mid/long Pulse-mid/long Autos-Short/mid Handcannons-short/ (barely) mid But when two HC's cover all of these very well there is a serious imbalance that needs to be fixed. I'm not saying nerf them into the ground, although it would make me happy, what I'm say is that Bungie needs to re-work it's PvP aspect of the game.
