re: Veterans: How much use does a military pistol actually get in deployment?

Infantry marine machine gunner. Carried one on a couple of patrols as a backup to my 240. Running around in a firefight I realized it was a pain in the arse flipping on my hip and putting it on my chest fricked up my prone. Ended up leaving it inside my pack the entire deployment. Never was issued one on my next 2 deployments.
If you or someone else is using a pistol shite has hit the fan. Just like fixing bayonets.

Think a UK military unit made the news a few years ago killing a bunch of Taliban with bayonets.

So overall,
If you get deployed with an m4, do you want a pistol to back it up?
Or would you consider it a burden and not worth the weight?
