So I was looking at my Red Hand IX Hand cannon from New Monarchy today and I was confused to find myself comparing impacts together with my thorn and last word. My Thorn in comparison to my Red Hand IX is missing a good decent chunk of impact, which my Red Hand does 86 head shot damage as to the thorn it does 84? If I'm not mistaken that shouldn't be anywhere close together since it doesn't contain any damage buffs besides the final round In the chamber. So either my Red Hand is bugged and needs to do more damage or thorn is, considering if you were to go off the stats of comparison.
I also looked at last Word same impact as thorn, but this makes more sense considering its perk makes it have more Damage for a headshot, which makes it more logical since it also does 84 if you have the Aggressive ballistics on. So I'm confused as to why that's a Thing!
Any Answers would be helpful.
Also not Ranting or Nerf This or that!
Edit - if you go from Accurized ballistics and field choke To Aggressive Ballistics it goes from 81 head shot to an 84 head shot From a Thorn. That should be a good 16 plus more damage per headshot for my Red Hand. If you are comparing the differences stat wise going off that thorn example.

I personally think that the red hand's stats compare much more favorably to the hawkmoon.
