With the growing popularity of pistol play, I think it would be a good idea to include it's own section. There are almost as many pistols at there are pump markers, so it would seem like a logical idea.

You can break pistols down to basically 5 types: spyder clones (80%), blow forward (sydarm and tac8&9), autococking (squall), pump (pgp, splatty [technically bolt action]), and double action (AGA 62 and Crossmann 3357). But i do see your point in that there are just as many as pumps, which only has three major types. Also, we have a section for launchers and misc, i don't see why pistols wouldn't deserve their own space. Will have to see what the guys in Red think. I see your point. I can't create new sections though sorry. But i haven't the power, i cannot do it captain, i just don't have the power. [/Scotty voice] Wow, i just totally dated myself there. sad.gif

And from the Spyder clones:

Zeus-pattern: Armotech, Core, Warsensor, Miltec, Ariakon, Rap4 T68. All the good Spyder pistols are Zeus-derived.

Delta-pattern: Delta 68, PT Extreme, PT Jr., most low-end junk pistols

Yes i agree... cuz some people i see playing only use pistols and pistols need to be better known about... I see people where i play using mostly t8 and tx9s but thats just where i play im sure there r many more brands...
