After a few intense shootouts, BGMI players may find themselves short on ammunition for their Assault Rifle or Submachine Gun. It is during these times that pistols become reliable backup weapons. They are effective in close- to mid-quarters combat, dealing decent damage to enemy squads, and are extremely lightweight which allows players to run and gun their opponents. In this guide, we will look at the five best pistols in Battlegrounds Mobile India.

5 Best Pistols In BGMI – The Best Backup Handguns
Although pistols serve as backup weapons, experienced gamers tend to increase the difficulty by doing pistol-only challenges. This also helps them improve their aim. However, one must know the five best pistols in BGMI before they jump into the action.
1. Deagle
Desert Eagle, aka Deagle, has an impressive damage of 62 per hit. It supports a red dot/holographic sight, an extended magazine, and a laser sight for improved aiming. Requiring three precise shots to destroy a Spetsnaz Helmet, Deagle’s firepower is useful only at mid-range because the timing between two shots makes it ineffective for close-quarters combat.
2. P1911
P1911 has slightly less damage than the Desert Eagle as each shot from the handgun deals 42 damage. However, it has more room for attachments and can support red dot/holographic sight, an extended/quickdraw magazine, and a laser sight. Unlike Deagle, BGMI players can also equip a suppressor to the weapon to muffle the sound of their shots.
3. R45
Revolvers are a powerful sidearm in any shooting game. The Rhino 60DS is one such weapon in BGMI that deals a hefty 65 damage with each bullet fired from its six-ammo chamber. Keep in mind that the weapon can only support Sights and has a low rate of fire with heavy recoil as compared to other handguns.
4. Skorpion
When it comes to stability and rate of fire, Skorpion aces the test. The fully automatic sidearm has a maximum ammo capacity of 40 and deals 22 damage with each hit from its 9mm sprays. Players can use the gun combination of Skorpion and Micro UZI Submachine Gun to swiftly eliminate entire squads before the enemies even have the time to react!

5. P92
The Beretta 92FS is the most basic handgun in BGMI. With a balanced firepower, velocity, and damage, it is ideal for any situation and can support attachments like an extended magazine, laser sight, red dot, and suppressor. The P92 is a trusted weapon when the enemy team has parachuted nearby and they haven’t grabbed a weapon yet.
