Best part of the 5.7 is not having to pay for the ammo

Full Swat '99 set, no helmet, no armor, a pair of sunglasses (even at night, no questions) and no fancy high tech gear. Just you, your impeccable aim, and your trusty Python.

"Next is the Kimber." Immediately puts it in F tier. 😂

Pistol choice seems entirely dependent on if you have a shield or not, imo. If you do have a shield, the Five-Seven is probably the best choice so you don't get screwed over by body armor, the other pistols just don't have the AP capabilities needed. If you don't have a shield, you can run pretty much anything because unless you're mag dumping everything that moves you wont run out of primary ammo. However, as noted in the video, running the big iron gives you bonus style points.

One thing about the fiveseven that wasnt mentioned was that it has extremely low recoil compared to all other handguns in the game. If you go to the range and spam it at a target without trying to compensate for expected recoil you will see.

Only one correction, you are confusing them USP with the Mk 23 when you discussed it’s development. The USP was originally designed in 40S&W and 9mm and assumed primarily at the US law enforcement market and European military market respectively. The .45 ACP variant came out a few years after the originals, and did borrow a bit developmentally from the Mk. 23.

Last night I had a game where I took the Python out for a spin (lol... spin... revolver...) and pied around a corner to find a suspect holding a civilian hostage. Tried ordering him to surrender, he refused. Tried a couple more times. Suspect moves to take the gun off the hostage and point at me instead. Before he can get the shot off I take my shot, get him right in the head, hostage stumbles away yelling. And in my head I just instantly hear: "Texas Red had not cleared leather 'fore a bullet fairly ripped And the ranger's aim was deadly with the big iron on his hip"

The five seven has been my side arm of choice since I started playing. Combine it with laser attachment, silencer, and ballistic shield. P90 on semi for near infinite ammo. Face shield and heavy steel armor to be a walking tank. I just start screaming "hands up" as soon as i'm walking through the front door. I want them to know i'm there, ready or not, here I come.

The colt python is unediebly a S tier, but it's not only about the style. This hand cannon one shots everything and is extremely ammo efficient. It's not forgiving at all but with great aim it's crazy. The dopamine in my monke brain hits hard when solo clearing a level with only a Colt Python...

I personally primarily use the USP45 with a flashlight or a Glock19 with a muzzlebreak, rmr and flashlight. The USP has less rounds but more firepower, and the glock looks frickin awesome

To the Kimber's credit, the team must have done all the hand polishing you normally need to do to make one work. In-game it never jams. Lol

I always run the 1911, it has nearly no ammo but the sheer stopping power and look is amazing

I run shields a ton so i’ve used most of the pistols extensively. If you like a gun because of its looks, that’s cool, but the objectively best picks are either the USP .45 or five-seven. The USP is more effective, assuming you can hit your shots. It will put down the overwhelming majority of suspects in 3 shots or less. However, the small mag size means you will have to hit your shots or risk completely running out of pistol ammo. Alternatively, the five-seven will frequently take 4-6 shots to take down suspects in my experience. However, you get a much larger, more forgiving magazine in return. My preference is to take the five-seven on longer maps where running out of ammo could be a concern (hospital, port, or farm, for example). Then, i take the USP on shorter maps with fewer suspects (college, brisa cove, sullivan’s slope, for example)

I hope that Void can add a 10mm pistol, like a Bren Ten or Colt Delta Elite (since we have a MP5 10mm why not)

If VOID coded in the ability of a revolver to top-up with single rounds, instead of dumping out the whole cylinder and using an entire 'magazine' to reload, the .357 would be a lot more useful. I'd love to see the S&W R8 added to the game. Eight rounds of .357 and a light/laser rale would make it very competitive.

The USP will never not leave my inventory. Even with just a flashlight on it, the aesthetic is clean as fuck.

The "equivalent" of the Colt Python (MR73) was used for a really long time as a special use or secondary weapon in the GIGN (french intervention and hostage rescue unit). Sometimes still used as a third gun and the first urban sniper of the GIGN

The 5.7 is so good on RoN that i usually carry it in conjunction with the SA-58. The sheer force of the 7.62x51 with the versatility of the 5.7x28 makes every map looks like a walk in the park.

This tier list video is hilarious 😂 I loved it.

Been waiting for this one. Thanks bro.

Really wish they would buff the revolvers damage at least a little. Sometimes it feels like I just have a little derringer with six shots.

Great video, keep them coming!

loving your RoN vids, love your voice and presentation

I’m getting a pc for Christmas and I’ve been watching a lot of your videos. They’re so informative and the more I watch your videos the more hyped I’m getting to play it!! Thanks for the awesome content!!

you forgot that with revolver you can do trickshots and make cool clips especially if you are wearing sunglasses in the middle of the night.

I love the 57, the stopping power isn't the best, but I still love it. It's to the point that it upsets me that the Bolton Security guards in-game have access to it.

You really can "shoot what you can't see". Just ask the unlucky hostage on the other side of that plaster board wall. 😁

Always used the M11 in this game, and that is my pick for..like ever. Never let me down in the game, and with my time in RCAF cadets, guns like that never let me down either. Must be a sign :)

I use pistols as a spare tool in the game. If I bring a longer rifle I use a pistol to clear tight spaces. If im using a ir laser on my primary I will have a flaslight on my pistol. I prefer the 5 7 because its good for any situation

Love this series

The custom supporter glock is where its at

I love pretending as solid snake snake with the usp lol

Cant wait for the primary's tier list!

USP GANG GANG

Deserves way more likes and subscribers

Colt Python Supremacy .It is the game on Easy Mode .

Yo this Chanel hella under rated

I'm a big fan of the Beretta 92FS in real life, having many thousands of rounds through mine. So I tend to run it as my in-game sidearm.

I like the TLE 1911. It's 7 .45 cal rounds and I have never had an issue with people not falling for there last time with it

The Colt had such a big punch, it even hit the like button. xD

Shield Big Iron + laser = sniping across the map from behind the wall. Great success.

Playing in SEK gear (German police Special ops squads) I use either the Glock or USP. For primary I go with the G36K and HK416 or SIGs ARs. Good video highlighting the strong points and weaknesses of them.

Interesting fact. It is used in swat teams fir the French gign. They wanted a revolver for reliability and it's lack of pierce so it can clear rooms safely

Funny that in my opinion, 5.7 is the best handgun IRL too. Probably this just shows how accurate and realistic Ready or Not is. It has a high capacity, good accuracy, low recoil.

I always move back and forward between the M11 and the five seven... Both are very cool 😎

8:01 This is my favorite side arm in Ready or Not (USP45) because of the size of the caliber and because you can mount an IR laser on it. (I love NVGs). It's always very reliable.

I had a coughing fit laughing at the Kimber

Nice, I always run the FN5.7. Do a tier list for rifles

I rate this video a solid 5/7.

BIG IROOON, BIG IROOOOOON

Civilian Use Only is not happy with the Kimber 1911. That's okay, I'll keep carrying that garbage.

Colt Python in S tier? 100% agree, subbed.

9:26 is one of the biggest reasons I always roll up onto site with my sidearm, and it's only once I need the extra firepower that I'll draw my primary

i just go with what ever pistol sounds the best

I think it would be sick if they added a 10mm sidearm like the M&P2.0 10, 15 round mag with stopping power close to 45

When I tried out the 45acp pistols, fun time ends after like 4 seconds. But with the 57, fun time keeps going. I feel like the 45acp should at least get extended mags or something

I love the USP45, but if I want style points I use the M45A1 with a silencer and RSO sight.

my preferred sidearm is the USP for the coolfactor. and is still somewhat viable because of the 12 rd mag

I personally use the m92fs only because i deployed with it and the sights them selves are amazing

I like that you touch on the IRL guns. Have you heard of the Manuhrin MR73? Designed to withstand 40,000 rounds of .357 PER YEAR. One has supposedly gone over one million rounds without a single major parts failure.

Even though the Kimber one was very real, it still felt oddly personal.

love your sometime biased tier list ! i'am 40 and i totaly agree !

The Five-SeveN was really an afterthought handgun to further sweeten NATO to the 5.7 round. It's overpriced, everyone who held one complained about a terrible trigger and the shitty plastic, and it's hard to find, its only positives are the ammo, allowing it to have a certain performance and high magazine capacity, and the fact that it was the only handgun chambered in 5.7 the longest time. The more recent 5.7 Ruger is better in all aspects and Kel-Tec's own proposed 5.7 meets more people's pockets while still having a better trigger. EDIT: I found out FN has revisited the Five-seven with the MRD a year ago. I don't know much about it but it looks like the MRD came out in response to other companies experimenting with the 5.7 round and to straighten up the issues pointed above.

Bro I wish the sig was chambered in 357 sig

I never had my Kimber jam on me y'all gotta take care of your guns

I remember playing with 1301/5.7 loadout. That was fun.

I usually run shield either with the USP or revolver. Gotta run the laser and aim for the head, or have buddies backing you up

🎵 Big Iron on his hip 🎵

I know it's bit ridiculous but I wanna see Desert Eagle in this game lol

I've always preferred pistols in tactical shooters and this is also the case in RoN - I only whip out the primary if we are bogged down in longer engagements (usually play co-op with my mates).

I like picking at nits, but for this list, there is not a single thing I disagree with.

I kind of only use the guns I actually have IRL. There is a certain feeling to using a gun in game that is only a few feet away from you.

Im glad you absolutely dunked on the TLE custom

I honestly just like the pistols sometimes because of how nice they feel.

Me and a bud cleared out the mail place (i dont remember mission names) with only the revolver, least armor, no other tools. We called it the 60s cop loadout. TLDR: Revolver is above S tier

I wish they had non lethal secondary options. Trying to achieve a S grade with AI teammates can be tricky. They seem to resort to switching to a pistol rather than taser.

I thought this would be a load of crap when you said you'd rank them partially based on looks, and when you got to the revolver, I realized that I have been playing this game wrong the entire time I've been playing it: sweaty.

Your comments on the Kimber prove that you know your stuff. First and only kimber I had, the rear sight fell of during the 2nd mag through it. It fell off the gun...

if you didn't put the revolver in S tier then i wouldn't have bothered finishing the video but here we are.

The vast majority of my builds run either the Python .357 or the USP Tactical, both in AP loadings. I wish they had the S&W Model 327 TRR8 in the game, I would love a modern SWAT revolver that has a full bottom and top rail.

The Five Seven is my dream gun! Any game that has it, is my go too side arm.

Great tier list. However, you forgot to account for the fact that the M45's serial number calls you Darling, making it S tier.

I remember playing on a more difficult map with a couple of my friends and i was dared to use python because generally i run a m45a1 , so i ran the python and my friend and his little brother got ghetto blasted and me and one of my friends are left and i still don't know how i got that many kills with a revolver, it was very entertaining but in the moment very terrifying 😂

I hope they add the trr8 in the future, we need a high capacity revolver

I once heard a spec ops say "why would you use a laser sight if you already have a red dot?" When covering a fps. And I still don't understand what he meant, wit a red dot you still have to sight your target, with a laser you just point.

As a kimber 1911 lover, mostly for the looks and John Wick , the kimber on immediate F tier hurt my feelings :D although it can't be ignored, they do jam

Would like to see some double stack 1911 options in this game, since my own custom build off a Para Ordnance frame holds 15+1 rounds of .45ACP flush fit (in line with the 9mm pistols in this game). An FNX-45 that also holds 15+1 of .45ACP would be cool as well. Also interesting that all the 9mm pistols top off at 15+1, when 17+1 is largely standard for full size 9mm pistols now. And most cops would use full size guns since they’re open carrying. Ah well, the fact that 15+1 9mm still seems commonplace makes me happy that I have 15+1 .45ACP to work with in my 1911. lol

It really is a bit odd that there is very little difference in game between handguns. As you said in another video, unless I run shield, I almost completely remove pistol ammo to free up slots for equipment. Honestly, I think the only three that get used are the default glock, the 5.7, and the USP. It would be nice to see a .40 cal in there that does a bit to bridge the gaps. If I were the dev's I would have had the 5.7, Beretta (9mm) Glock 22 (40SW) M11 (357 sig), and the USP45/Mk23/FNX45. I have NO idea why there are 2 1911's in game. Honestly wish some mod would kill the kimber or the marsoc and change them into something like a 2011. Im also a bit sad that you cant use the TP9 or MP7 with a shield. Probably over powered if you could, but that was one of the selling points of the TP9.

I have a real Beretta 92X Performance and it sure does perform.

"Ammo capacity and shot placement is much more important than stopping power"

Big iron all day, it got me through the hospital map solo. Only pistol that reliably drops people in 1 hit

I have some thoughts on pistols viability. I wish they had more stopping power of some kind, the revolver could almost serve this purpose but has too many drawbacks (such as the speedloader requiring you to dump ammo on the ground and poor sights). Pistols are very maneuverable and never get caught on walls, allowing you to take positions you can't even take with an SMG. Not to mention how cool they look in general. The issue is that every pistol besides the revolver is 9mm or .45 and neither one of them has enough punch to be viable in most scenarios. The .357 has the stopping power but due to the way health and armor works, the results are very inconsistent and unreliable. It's entirely possible to get "robbed" even with a well placed shot. I also feel the lack of stun, lack of bleeding and subject AI currently heavily discourage anything that doesn't drop someone with a high ROF or high damage. If I land three or four 9mm, they might just live and I might just get my head blown off instantly. With better AI, I could see pistols being a lot more useful in general situations. I'd also like to see a better reload for the magnum that doesn't dump all your ammo on the floor. Maybe a heavier caliber pistol such as a .44 or even a desert eagle if they decided to be a little fun. I know the desert eagle is not a very good gun, but it would be a fun gun to shoot and likely have the stopping power I am missing with other handguns.

I too enjoy the Five-Seven because I used it in splinter cell.

2:17 Glock 19 B Tier 3:03 Colt M45A1 C Tier 3:55 Colt Python S Tier 4:53 Beretta 92X A Tier 5:44 FN57 S Tier 6:49 Sig P229 B Tier 7:46 Kimber F Tier 8:02 USP A Tier

As of 1.0 I've found the Beretta to be extremely accurate!

Five Seven if you want maximum performance out of your handgun. Python if you want the drip.

This is something they made after Nashville Covenant School Shooting last year. Ever since I watched their body cams, I wanted a game similar to what they did in real life. Ready or not game is that answer and I'm so glad I bought it cause it has my favorite weapon. The p90. Its been my favorite since COD4MW and BF3.

In RoN, I switch to my pistol when clearing tight spaces (like toilets) where my main (G36C) will compress.

The python goes to S tier for drip

I never even pull out my pistol
