What's the state of hand cannons currently?

Hi, new destiny 2 player here. Have been having a blast doing what's available getting new stuff and finding out what exotics do as I come across them with my friend who's far more experienced. Recently I've been thinking about playing hand cannons in attempt to become a Destiny 2 "cowboy", but the aforementioned friend says the current state of hand cannons isn't all that great and that using ciphers on majority hand cannons would be a waste. Looking for any sort of second opinions as well as ideas to make hand cannons supposedly not garbage. Appreciate any and all help or feedback!

  • It really depends on your style of play. Hand cannons are still really strong in the right hands. Mostly I see the 140rpm ones used. Exotics like Crimson and Ace of Spades is common. I was using a Seventh Sereph hand cannon, not unlike the one the gun smith is selling right now, and having fun with it. I did surprisingly well in the one and only match I used it in and I hate hand cannons.
