Handgun vs. Makeshift Handgun

[Reiker]

The Handgun requires a higher level to unlock, but it's less damage than the Makeshift Handgun and the ammo costs 2x to produce.

Am I missing something or is the Makeshift Handgun just better? I get that the Handgun has better durability but that doesn't seem to be enough to justify using it.

Fire Rate. AKA DPS or Damage per second.

Less dmg per hit but faster fire rate.

As well single target high dmg is great against bosses but sucks capturing pals.

High fire rate low dmg weapons are also great against bosses (though more expensive to run due to ammo) but are also great for capturing pals.
