I haven't found a LEGENDARY hand cannon worth using. The nerfs on range and accuracy makes them fairly useless in both PvE and PvP. I honestly don't think I've even been shot at by a legendary hand cannon in The Taken King crucible. Side arms even seem to be more fun now.
*Edit 1*
Thanks for the replies... I should also mention, IMO, this is the best legendary HC I have at the moment:

She has range and impact, but rate of fire is a bit low for me.

Love all the comments, up votes and replies. Thanks!
Kudos to all out there that love their Hand Cannons!!!

I finally got my hands on an Imago Loop. LOVE IT!!! With 12 in the magazine, Outlaw and Hammer Forged (I also have rifled barrel). I used my Judith-D as infusion fuel to get my Imago Loop to 300.

2 RepliesThey need a slight range buff to be useful in pvp again. Cept hawkmoon n thorn. N they need a huge pve buff they absolutely suck in pve at the moment tried the fwc one n it's damn awful without range n the slow fire rates mean u get swarmed easily. I'd like to see a 50% damage buff in pve n maybe a 20% range buff. They r just not competitive without a bit more damage and range.

What sucks is how low the range is and when your out of that range there is literally NO aim assist or bullet guidance so it seems like you shot them but nope.

1 ReplyHCs were nerfed too hard. Pulse Rifles and Scouts are the competitive option.

Got my fatebringer 2.0 in an imago loop with outlaw and firefly and hammerforged in the middle row it destroys everything in sight.

I love the new monarchy handcannon
-
Eyasluna, Imago Loop, and Vanity do work.
-
Besides the raid hand cannon,no
-
I got the Future War Cult Omolon Hand Canon, it's really nice but I don't use it too often since I need to infuse it with some better gear.

Eyasluna.

297 Eyasluna 294 Cordova-HC3 (Rare - Honorable mention) Picking up The Vanity from FWC in a day or two.

I have crowd control and reactive reload on my Judith. Hits 95 base precision damage so if either activate it's a pretty easy 2 shot.

1 ReplyImago Loop is keen. It's a drop for Vex-based strikes. Get one. Definitely worth some grinding.

Baby Hawkmoon Buff said.

I got the baby hawkmoon with luck in the chamber and explosive rounds

2 RepliesMy warlock does

I got baby Hawkmoon and fatebringer. The perks suck but I like the 1.0 hand cannon look and sound.

Imago loop

1 ReplyThe vanity from fwc. Only legendary primary I'll ever use (pve only)
-
The crucible handcannon is the best to me
-
Judith has massive damage
-
I do on my warlock
-
The vendor FWC HC is good
-
I'd use my 299 attack Vanity with firefly and luck in the chamber if it didn't literally crash the game.
-
I love handcannons, but I think the only slot worth an exotic is the primary, so I pretty much only use the exotics. That being said I've got some good down and boun trolls, and the gun itself doesn't feel all that bad

Down and Doubt with Third Eye and Firefly. It was the best I had for a few days after TTK dropped.
