My grinding FWG5's do around 220 max damage, but they are sliced. I have a bunch of thoose in the bank.
My "special events" FWG5 do 288 max damage, sliced (383 with Powerup).

FWG's and blasters are my choice..
de-10 are a little too much for my taste.

DE-10 looks good, but it's overrated. You can get close to the same result with Republic Blasters. Since it's much cheaper to produce it gives you more opportunity to attempt to get a good damageslice. I did a load with cheap easy-to-loot High Powered Energy Capacitors (+20 damage) and managed to get one slice that did 300 as max damage. Would you like 2x 300dmg armor piercing energy blasters for 200k? Thats what I got.
Imagine what you can do with good krayt tissue... 400+ is theoretically possible. Besides, it's a much faster pistol than the DE-10 if speed is an issue.
Even with this, you shouldnt make a "choice". Pistoleer's have the advantage that they can deal out lots and lots of different damagetypes. If you miss out this advantage you cripple your own profession. Grab a good FWG5 (Heat), DX2/Scatter (Armor Piercing ACID), Geonocian Blaster (STUN), Republic Blaster (Armor Piercing ENERGY) and finally the "nightsisterkiller" Striker (KINETIC). Use the best damagetype for each fight.
Even in PvP... If your opponent do not use PSG the Geonocian Blaster rock. With PSG a Scatter/DX2 is your top pick, due to the massive damagereduction of anything but Armor Piercing Acid.

Gorax shards are like krayt tissue. Its just that they are used in differnt types of guns.

It's a Projectile Feed Mechanism. It boosts the damage with up to +90 (which becomes +120 with a 33% slice btw).
Simple High Velocity Feed Mechanisms produces great and very cheap grinding pistols.
