Since you were talking about riflemen having a pistol, I took that to mean those individuals for whom a rifle/carbine is their primary weapon, not every Marine/Soldier.
I'd love to read your paper. Please do start a thread about it.
Sorry I should have been more specific. I was referring to a Marine Corps Infantry Unit, at least in my experience.
Once I get it to publish ready maturity, I'll certainly post a copy here.
