I think what people are missing though is how incredibly embarassing it is for someone to get owned by a springer. . . I've done it at least a dozen times, and the reaction from people watching is priceless everytime.

I carry a springer in my holster 98% or the time, switching only to a gas blow back for pistol-only games. The few times I have carried a gas blow back, I can count the number of times I've switched to a pistol on one hand.

For the most part, changing magazines in your AEG and switching to semi-automatic in close quarters is much more effective than resorting to a pistol.

The only thing that sticks out in my mind as making a sidearm necessary are those people who have over-upgraded their AEGs so as to make them so hot that they would be dangerous at close ranges--it also gives more suppot to those who leave their guns stock or lightly upgraded, since they do not eliminate the utility of their primary guns are close range.
