Having qualified more than once with a 9mm Baretta there may be a firing range accuracy, but in real life everyone knows a pistol is not worth shit in combat. In Iraq we used to say leave one bullit in your weapon (meaning pistol in our case being Corpsman) for yourself. In other words if you are having to use a pistol you must be the last guy standing in a firefight or convoy surrounded by the enemy about to be taken POW.

It is hard to qualify with a pistol on the range standing still. I would imagine in a real life situation the accuracy really goes down after a few feet.
