OBO: Pistols Rebalance script UPDATED

BUGFIX: Reverted single Pistol Deploy Duration to 0.3 (from 0.01) to fix an odd bug where throwing a gascan, propane tank, or oxygen tank etc... would instantly fire your weapon and detonate the item in your face. Thanks to Archmage Zhed for reporting this issue.

-Sped up Spread Decay to 15 from 10.
-Increased Spread Per Shot to 3 from 1.
-Reduced Standing Accuracy to 0.7 from 0.6.
-Sped up single Pistol Deploy Duration to 0.01 (instant) from 0.3.
-Sped up Duel Deploy Duration to 0.3 from 0.4.
These were really too accurate during auto fire due to me having left Spread Per Shot alone up until now. These settings should differentiate the Pistols from other weapons better.

THE BALANCE UPDATE
-Reverted the ammo type back to vanilla Pistol ammo. That's right, these Pistols no longer gib and insta-kill like the Desert Eagle any more.
-Increased damage to 40 from 33.
-Updated the lame images on the Workshop Page. They were bad enough to warrant a mention in the update notes.

So, the ammo type. This is the biggest change, but very necessary for balance. Desert Eagle ammo on the Pistol is just silly from a balance perspective, no matter how nice the gib effects are. I've done several Pistol script mods and all of of them had their own balance issues, whether too powerful or too weak, and that's what this mod aims to solve going forward. Balance balance balance...

-Reduced firing delay for single Pistol from 0.166 to 0.16. Fires slightly faster.
-Vastly reduced damage, from 45 to 33. A fast-clicker could end up doing around 400 or 450 DPS, which is bonkers. Now the pistols will more accurately represent horde-stopping over single target damage.

Update: 25 May, 2019 @ 4:50am

Reduced damage from 50 to 45 (vanilla is 36) and tweaked pierce damage reduction to match new damage.
Slightly reduced fire rate from 0.15 to 0.166 (vanilla is 0.175).
Slightly reduced vertical recoil from 2.2 to 2.1 (vanilla is 2.0).

Slight tweak to damage.

Initial release.
