Hi, new destiny 2 player here. Have been having a blast doing what's available getting new stuff and finding out what exotics do as I come across them with my friend who's far more experienced. Recently I've been thinking about playing hand cannons in attempt to become a Destiny 2 "cowboy", but the aforementioned friend says the current state of hand cannons isn't all that great and that using ciphers on majority hand cannons would be a waste. Looking for any sort of second opinions as well as ideas to make hand cannons supposedly not garbage. Appreciate any and all help or feedback!

It really depends on your style of play. Hand cannons are still really strong in the right hands. Mostly I see the 140rpm ones used. Exotics like Crimson and Ace of Spades is common. I was using a Seventh Sereph hand cannon, not unlike the one the gun smith is selling right now, and having fun with it. I did surprisingly well in the one and only match I used it in and I hate hand cannons.
