Hand Cannons are off the f#cking chain!
I've never found myself at a disadvantage in crucible for using a hand cannon (the hand cannon is a three-shot kill most of the time), and in my experience of PVE, the hand cannon trumps all other weapons, since it locks enemies in a little stun animation where they recoil in pain when you shoot them. The only absolute downside to hand cannons are their ridiculously long reload speed. Everything else is fine. Anyone care to fill me in why they think hand cannons suck? Using them is so fun! I hope Bungie doesn't listen to the whiners that want Hand Cannons to be secondaries, it's too much fun to use a magnum halo 1 style!
(Edit; this post was made during the beta, before the Exotics and Legendaries had been used, so it is naturally outdated. Keep posting your awesome hand cannons below anyway!)

In particular I got a Timur's Lash that has: Spray and Play, Flared Magwell (or you can use Skip Rounds) and Life Support Making it superb with Reload and Ammo Capacity in Crucibles. The Impact is great. I also can't wait for the nice changes coming to Thorn as I've fully leveled it up and it was a beast in Iron Banner. Update: You should rename this post Hand Cannon's are Awesome! Update 2: if you get Timur's Lash as I mentioned above and get it fully leveled up. You can kill in Crucible with two Head Shots and Three chest shots! It works the same in PVE in most cases too. Also you should consider getting gauntlets that have Fast Reload Speed for Hand Cannons to get an extra edge. So anyone complaining about Hand Cannons are junk or it should be a Secondary weapons is highly mistaken!
