This reminds me of League of Legends~
On forums and reddit, those who vote and post like to feel hip, so they claim to main support and flood that option in polls, giving the impression that the community loves playing Support..
In reality, they spend a large amount of time fighting over ADC and Mid in champion select, with the last pick thrown into the support role.
Its the same here. People will vote for hand cannons despite the fact that the largest majority of the game use Assault Rifles, Sniper Rifles, and Shotguns(in PvP perhaps)
Handcannon is the hip option, with gems like the Hawkmoon and last word every player's dream.

I use hand cannons in pve and assault rifles in PvP.
-
I use a hand-cannon most of the time.

I have a pulse rifle. And I want to love it. But in the crucible in a 1v1 with any competent person with an AR I get p'wned. Buff pulse Plz

It probably speaks to the personalities behind each gun. Not to generalize too much, but a casual shooter who does not read forums is going to generally pick an auto rifle as its very familiar. Where as handcannons probably feature more thoughtful, patient, and/or involved weilders who apparently patrol the forums quite a bit.

Hand cannon master race. [spoiler]Check my profile if you like, like 99% of everything I do involves a hand cannon[/spoiler]

Yeah, I figure you're right on the money there. But this post is about [u]Your[/u] favorite weapon and what special property it has that you can quote about it. Try it out! Everyone here could be Assault Rifle players but the majority just admires hand cannons.

Indeed. Which is why I voted for the Hand Cannon myself. Though I lack the precision to use them, I love seeing skilled hand cannon users in the crucible.

I tip my hat to you, kind sir. Rarely have I seen one man enough to admit their choice in weaponry as humbly as yourself!
