Well, depends on your server really, might be a good idea to post on your trade forums asking if any Weaponsmiths have any in stock and what there prices are.
On Intrepid, the Standard Geo (about 216 max damage) go for 250-350k, not cheap I'm afraid. You can sometimes get good deals though if you shop around and very occasionly a half decent one ends up on the bazaar.
Lol, if there was a set combination of specials that did that regardless of a persons skills - I think we would all want to know them!! With your template, I would always start off with putting some bleeds and a torsoshots on them, then whatever else happens they are going to be ticking away.
I have a macro that basically has Healthshot1, Bleedingshot, Healthshot2, Torsoshot in it. I would do this at least twice to ensure they stick, and as Torsoshot stacks about 3 timesmake sure you hit them a few times with it. The other advantage is that a lot of players panic when they see all those dots on them and will either try to heal if they can or at the very least it will distract them.
Eye shot is an extremly useful shot, generally it cant be healed - and players soon fill up if they drink blue milk or pop a brandy - so keep spamming that shot. Stopping shot as well, probably your most pistol powerful shot, although the damage is spread out - hitting them with about 5 or so should make a big dent in there HAM.
But it does all depend on who you are fighting, one thing that has helped me a lot in PVP is dueling (friendly) people in my guild and other friends, with different proffessions. You get to learn a lot that way.
Since you have 18 SP left over - I would go for either novice medic which will certainly help you last longer - or Novice Brawler as intimidate1 take a lot of there damage potential away.

However, many weaponsmiths have perfected the art of making lower level weapons such as the FWG5, republic blaster, and even DX2 (requires master.) Most of these can be bought for 10K or less. Nowadays paying a couple million credits for a few dozen extra hitpoints of damage and a weapon that will decay in a month is hard to justify unless you are hardcore PvP or building a DE-10.
Good luck

Fine pistol wares are extremely expensive at the moment I'm afraid. You may want to wait for the next patch when Krayts are supposed to become more common and then the price on tissues will come down (in theory.) Also, pistoleers have no armor piercing weapons above level 1 so they cannot put a dent in the higher end mobs to get the good pistoleer components for themselves.
