Try dropping your sniper rifle for the next say, five games and go pistol only. The experience gained should be enough to give you somewhat of a primer on using your pistol effectively.

It'll be heaps better to do that than to stand in your basement shooting at a stationary target over and over with zero stress.
I second this. I played with 8 pistol magazines for the longest time. Usually because my long guns have some mechanical problem or another, or just because they're unwieldy to hold for a long period of time. Knowing you have to be more careful because you can't flip the "full auto" switch and go nuts is part of what makes playing with a pistol fun; it also makes you a better player, I think.

I also had a pistol duel of sorts with mmmken last year and won by luck, after we both shot a ton at each other. So maybe don't listen to us (or just me).
