I"m just about finished mastering pistoleer, and also have bh pistol 4. (Pretty easy with blue leaf temple+nice scatter pistol and fan shot) This is my first pistoleer character and I'm fairly unwise in it's workings. So....my question to all of you pistoleers out there is this:
With my remaining 61 skill points, what template should I invest in to acquire the be-all end-all of pvp pistol templates.
The threads open for arguements, I'm sure many people have many contradicting views on what this might be. All helps appreciated.

well .. w/ smugg low blow and the speed max w/ bh and pistoleer ... youd be taking off alot more and you would have a kd and stun and FD ... not much more skill points after having BH

Master Pistoleer, 0040 Smuggler, 0020 BH, and 1000 Medic.
Most people don't know the potential behind this. Being able to heal is battle is by far better than having BH 0040 and Novice Commando. You can always temporarily take up Novice Commando for base takedowns.

honestly the "best" is up for debate
but if you're going for defenses, the best pistol template sadly does not include master pistoleer
if you're going for power, it most definatley includes smuggler dirty fighting and at least bh pistols 2
you can't have it all, but you'll be a dirty dabbler either way

btw, go with wha'ts fun, not "best"
my current template is bh pistols 0020, master pistols, smuggler 0040, novice commando and scout 4030 which leaves me with two skill points left over.... this is a very fun template and i reccomend trying it out for it's fun factor instead of looking for something with an "i win" factor (which would be melee anyways lol)

How do any of you PvP without medic? 0/0/4/0 is almost a necessity to me.

I have PVP'd and hunted Jedi without medic (template was MBH/MPistols/carb 3000) but dropped the master BH and LLC tree for novice medic.
Keep in mind about the CU changes, stacking won't come into play, my old toon was a hybrid template with BH pistols 4, dirty fighting 4, pistoleer 0043, novice commando and it was alot of fun with all the available pistols and specials.

Best is def. up in the air until after the CU. Some things to mention:
Novice commando can't help with base slicing, except to help kill turrets with the lag pistola. It takes 0100 commando to slice bases. Otherwise, commando DOES NOT help in PvP in the least.
Folks take bh pistols to the top because of torso shot. It's a great health fire attack that stacks with HS1 and HS2.
Medic is not all that necessary if you are in a group. And, look at your self-healing possibilities:
1) Pixie is +1000 health. With good smugglers' delight, you're down for 12 seconds every 13 minutes, and you can be FD during that. Muon if your mind is down.
2) Vercupti is +1000 or so to all bars, if it's the good stuff. 900 if low-fill.
3) Feign Death. If you have any smuggler pistols, you have this. It's fun to heal using FD, but you have to do it before the end of the battle, or someone will run up and black bar you.
4) Run! Ducking into a building (if in a friendly city) or behind one, or simply burst running off with Parwan Nutricake is an option. Fully buffed, if you shuck your armor and sit, you will regen in seconds.
It's just a different playstyle, really.
What kills me is states and poison and fire. It's almost enough for me to sell out and get Doc 3040.

master pistol
bh 0040
fencer 0340 or 0430
no points left
that gives you huge defense vs KD, dizzy, posture down, and 1h COB if you really wanna get funky....and melee mitigation 2 and yes it works when you arent using a 1h weapon
or give up all that for last ditch and feign death.....personally i like eye shot and torso shot both better than last ditch. dont get me wrong, last ditch is nice with the stun and all....but random pool sucks. eye shot is just fine
