Handcannons destroy butts in PVE but can pound butts harder in PVP if in the right hands. I decided to play some Crucible with those bad MF's. The handcannon I use is the Lord High Fixer. Does some nasty critical damage and if aim is true can go up against a sniper or scout rifle. It's unforgiving if shots are missed but it's rewarding when the bullets hit their mark.
P.S. Editing is pretty crappy.

Edited by Drunk_Canadians: 1/1/2015 4:01:05 AMIf you love hand cannons then use the Regulator. It may be blue, but it's basically Timur's lash with 11 rounds. Guaranteed three shot kill and it hits for 95 on a headshot.

I miss my lord high fixer :( dismantled it before I knew what I had early in the game... Sad days man.
-
Any hand cannon tips because I got Thorn but can't do good because I suck with Handcannons and used to be an AR guy

Currently in the top 2% for K/D on Playstation. I love my Hawkmoon.

Went 31-4 with just Thorn + skill earlier today. Doesn't happen a lot but when it does it's glorious

DUDE!! I've been reading lots of good stuff about The Lord high fixer here lately. Makes me really happy as it's by far my favourite gun!! And I always thought it was totally underrated! And yes especially the range of The Lord is incredible! Can you compare it to hawkmoon (range only), I really would like to know as people always say how awesome HM range is. Well praise The Lord!!!

Try out the Polite Denial 0/1, Primed Big Sky Mk. 48, or Painted Big Chief Mk. 45 Slower Rate of Fire and lower Stability BUT... Higher Impact and Range. You'll be hitting 95's for precision damage. 2 headshots kill every time.

Yeah I use that gun too, although it's the only exotic primary I have. But I would always use hand cannon. Thing about Handcannons is that while they can still wreck people at long range, at short range you can use them like a shotgun (one shot + melee) and at mid range you can jump/strafe and fire rather than aiming down sites, making it harder for anyone to hit you. So you should be good for most encounters basically, as long as you play smart.

Get your butt in there with thorn.. That's my main gun in crucible. Beats about anything in a straight firefight, always wins the peek and shoot game and a team players wet dream, so many assists and kills from beyond the grave.

Hawkmoons random lucky bullets does 168 on precision damage <3

Insane

They definitely seem to outdamage most other primary guns.
