I'm not saying let them carry two pistols. Just make 1 and 2 both pull the same sidearm. I look at my inventory for my Stalker and see an NS-7... that I can't use. I switch to my recon dart gun and fire off an few, and then reflexively hit 1 to go back to my weapon like I do for all the other classes, even for the regular cloak suit. Instead of getting a weapon, I get a message saying that slot is disabled and a little noise in my headset.
Yeah, this has killed me a couple of times at least - about to place mine, bad guy comes around corner, hit 1 to switch to pistol and.........dead.
