However, it's most important application is it's effectiveness at medium-to-long range combat: The Pistol, by default, is the only weapon to effectively bridge the gap between the close-quarters weapons/heavy weapons and the long range Sniper Rifle. With it rendered useless, there is now no[\i] effective weapon in this range. Thus, there is now a hole in game-play. On a small or medium sized map, this might not be too much of a problem, but on a larger map like Blood Gulch, this hole from the Medium range up means broken game-play, with increased grenade spamming in an attempt to gain a little range.
This problem could be rectified if you chose to upgrade some of the other weapons to fill this hole. For example, upgrading the Assault Rifle such that it was more similar to it's Halo 3 cousin (increased accuracy, lessened clip), could help that weapon begin to fill the role now left open by the Pistol. One could also increase the accuracy of the Plasma Rifle, and the speed of it's projectiles, to do the same thing. Note, however, that these upgrades do not turn these weapons into a new Pistol; They simply allow other weapons to aid in bridging the gap in game-play.

P.S. Sorry for the long read.
Don't forget about the damage for the AR also has to be increased if the clip is shortened (just like Halo 3)
