Handcannons fire 40mm projectiles according to the destiny handbook they made before d1. Also we happen to have self regenerating gernades that come from nowhere.

  • 40mm long maybe, but not in diameter. That'd be over half the chamber's total width if that were the case. Still kinda small seeing as how most modern rifle rounds are an average 45mm long or longer; not even mentioning them being much wider on average as well. A standard 5.56x45mm rifle round has about 3 times the force of a standard 9mm handgun round. Also that's comparing pure space magic to an actual physical mechanism. Wait... Are grenades made from Light, or are they synthesized by our Ghosts as well? Where does the magic end and science begin!?

It's probably comes from the ghost who power comes from the light. And yes auto rifles should do more damsge then a handcannon. One is a rifle and has more power behind it. An Ar15 which chambers .223 is more powerful then a desert eagle that chambers .50. Scout rifles make sense. M14 is more powerful then a ak47. Rapid Fire scouts are just battle rifles, (automatic weapons of a larger caliber compared to regular assault rifles, the scar is a battle rifle). Also the weapon ranges don't make sense. A real life M4A1 can shoot up to 400 meters or more. The destiny auto rifles can't make it past 40. Same with pulse rifles which are just assault rifles set on thr burst setting. Gun wise not to much is diffrent from assault rifles to Designated Marksman Rifles. Both can shoot far. Shotguns should have more range. When I played d1 for the first time and tried using a shotgun on a dreg. I tired to hit him from down the hallway with the tripwires in a guardian rises. Because I thought shotguns could shoot a decent distance. Destiny 1 was my first fps.
