To be honest the secondary is supposed to be a emergency weapon such as when you run out of ammunition in your primary or if your primary is single fire and you need a backup weapon to get more shots on target, it’s not meant to be a weapon on par with that of a smg or whatever you have in your primary slot because it isn’t, it’s just meant for you to have as a last resort.
hopefully this clears things up and makes your day a little easier

Have you played any of the other Battlefield games? Pistols are severely nerfed in BF6. Give me the option to pick up a rock and throw it, I'm sure it'll do more damage than the pistols.

I’m not sure if you were meaning that to go towards me but if so then yes I have played several other battlefield games before starting with battlefield bad company 2 and every game after and even then the pistols weren’t meant to be on par with the primary weapons the player was given yes you could have been given a rock and have done more damage and in some games your secondary wasn’t always a pistol but in general it was just supposed to be the weapon you used in an emergency it was never meant for anyone to run pistols only as you only have about 3-4 mags worth of ammunition for your secondary weapon

I've gotten Mastery 20 on all base game pistols (only 12 on the M357) and they feel like they should compared to how the main weapons are. Still quicker to swap to pistol than reloading (especially using an LMG) and kill in a reasonable amount of shots to red zone areas.

Revolvers are a whole different subject matter than most other pistols because in most if not all games and in reality revolvers are a handgun with a very high power projectile with low round count meaning you get a heavier shot while sacrificing mag capacity and reloading the thing constantly so you had better make sure the thing hits the target on the first shot otherwise you’re screwed now you can go for a weapon like the m1911/m45a1 which has less firepower than a revolver but can fire faster and it also has more ammo in the magazine meaning that you can miss a couple shots and still have more left over

They could be buffed slightly. Even giving them some extra points for an additional attachment would be OK too. I don't think they should be the same level as a primary though.
I'd also like an automatic and/or burst pistol, like the G18 and 93R in BF4, for some variety.

The .45 - 1911 pistol in BF6 is an abomination. Because of the absurd drop off it’s no better than the default 9mm at any range past 5 yards.
The 1911 should be doing 35 - 40 dmg per shot out to 30 yards. Make it worth using.

I made the same argument and suggestion during the closed and open beta and they were completely silent on the subject. Pistols are super weak outside using a revolver or playing Hardcore mode.
