Reactor+4 Forma, no primes

Since this is a pistol and not your main DPS in most cases I'll ignore throwing pistol mutation on for extra DPS. No reason to double the ammo drop for a common ammo type.

Pathogen Rounds, Convulsion, Heated Charge, Hornet Strike, Target Cracker, Pistol Gambit, Lethal Torrent, Barrel Diffusion.

1594 damage/shot /// 31890 burst DPS /// 22778 sustained DPS

With prime variants (might need 5th forma):

2901 damage/shot /// 58021 burst DPS /// 41443 sustained DPS

Compare this to even primary weapons like the Soma Prime... Using Heavy Caliber in place of Lethal Torrent and mirroring all other mods, you get:

1886 damage/shot /// 28294 burst DPS /// 23097 sustained DPS

Even doing something really stupid like trashing your ammo economy for Vile Acceleration in place of Heated Charge, you only get just under 40k DPS and 27.5k sustained.

Personally I'd take Aksomati and a status or AoE gun in the primary.
