Sidearm

"The Sidearms class is made up of lightweight pistols designed for ease of handling and quick-firing. Its antiquated triggering system and engineering make it rare within City limits. As it's long been a staple of the Awoken Royal Guard, perhaps this newly forged alliance between the Reef and the City will see the Sidearm become commonplace within Guardian arsenals."

- Grimoire Description

Sidearms are a class of special weapon introduced into Destiny in the House of Wolves expansion, and available to use in Destiny 2. Unlike Hand Cannons, they have low impact but high rate of fire and reload rate, making them excellent backup weapons.
