Maybe I am using an outdated char buildier but it seems that some of the templates i have read will not work.
Master Pistoleer
BH Pistols Line (requiring master marksman and 1 scout tree)
Smuggler Pistols (requiring brawler tree)
If this is correct then there are not enough skill points for all of this
Can someone please comment

Doing more research I would like to suggest this template and get some feedback
Master Pistoleer
BH Pistols 3
Novice Medic
48 points left
Would it be good to go TKA 0/0/0/3 to get some good melee defense

You could take TK, or maybe go 3/0/0/0 fencer, which would give you ranged/melee defence and bring your dodge up to 120. 
Edit: There is no reason to get BH pistols III, stay at II. At II, you have 99 speed, which enables you to shoot pretty much any weapon at the speed cap (unless your weapon has insane speed problems, in the 10s or 20s..... unlikely), and it gives you 125 pistol accuracy, which is the cap. Furthermore, it doesn't give you any specials, just redundant skill mods. Save the points from BH pistols III and put it into TK or fencer, or any other prof you choose.

BH was just changed this Tuesday to cost less skill points (only one tree of scout is needed instead of master) so Master Pistoleer, Smuggler 0/0/4/0 and BH 0/0/4/0 work fine, I'd get novice commando too to just top off that pistol template with the amazingly nice launcher pistol.

Going up the fencer tree appears to be better
Master Pistoleer
BH Pistols (3)
Fencer 4/0/0/0
Medic 1/0/0/0
This gives to following
Defense v Blind +40
Defense v Knockdown +50
Defense v Stun +40
Dodge +120
General Ranged Aiming +30
Melee Defense +116 (with good comp armor this should be great)
Pistol Acc +120
Pistol Acc while moving +30
Pistol Acc while standing +15
Pistol Speed +99
Pistol Aiming +16
Ranged Defense +91
Ranged Mitigation +3
With a good weapon and armor this should be fine for most PvE. Thanks for the help

There is no cap on accuracy. If there was, it would greatly be more than 205 (see master TKA)

Yeah but with the rebalance thing only if you are wielding a pistol will get those mods. So you might want to look ahead and save yourself from going fencer. How about this? Master Pistoleer, BH 0040, Medic 1000, Smuggler 0020. This way you can feign death panic shot, torso shot, and hopefully get some working pistol specials. Also, you could swap smuggler for commando and get the launcher pistol and two boxes of flamethrower.

I totally agree with this template except for the bh pistols 3, and fencer 4000
This template isnt designed around defense. I know because this was my template for a long time awhile ago (well as far as Bh pistols and pistoleer)
This template is DESIGNED for insane offensive attacks. You MUST have bh pistols 4 for one reason only.
/torsoshot
This attack combined with health shot 1 and 2 and bleed shot can be DEVASTATING on a VAST majority of opponents. With these DOT's stacked you force an opponent to SCRAMBLE to keep their health up while you just destroy their mind with eyeshot. And thats just if you wanna mess with em
you can kill em pretty dang quick (unless they have high medic skills) just by spamming torso shot hehe. But aMAKE sure to stack all the bleeds and burns!!!My idea for the template?
master pistols
bh pistols 4
fencer 2000 (good defense and extra dodge to cap it off)
and medic 1000 so you can heal faster
