Where does the P2020 shine?

I am asking this because I find myself often getting a P2020 at start with enemies picking up a Flatline, r99 or pretty much any other gun which simply slaps the P2020's butt. If you have hammers ...

Don't pick it up.

If you pick it up, drop it.

If you have to choose between a grenade and the 2020, take the grenade.

When you see a 2020, RUN FROM IT!

@MrGreenWithAGun I don't think it is unuseable, I can pick it up and deal damage. It works. It is just that I don't find it better than any other option.

In close combat it can win vs. a sniper as a backup gun or "main" at the start when you have nothing else. You can potentially peak and shoot it vs. a havoc (not turbocharged).
But then there is always a better option. What I'm asking is where and when would you want to have the P2020 specifically, and not another gun.

@DrWizardoI'm not sure it is as effective as punching.

I notice that when someone punches you, they lunge at you, like the netcode is trying to reconcile their location on your machine after the server said the punch landed, and your machine has to catch up and fast.

I also notice that when you get punched, you get tossed pretty good distance, sort of to give you some room to run and not get punched again, or is it to help the netcode reconciliation in some way...

I would rather toss a grenade and run than stand and shoot with that thing.

Where does it shine? In the toilet.

Literally.

In the toilet in KC, where regularly 4 or 5 squads land on top of each other, and if you can get it, you might be able to knock someone in a punching match with another squad from a safe distance.
But I don't play in toilets.
