Officers, SNCOs, most NCOs, and about 10% of LCPLs, PFCs, and Privates. So to answer your question not nearly enough are issued a pistol.
I'm currently working on a white paper on a better way to replace the M9. The proposal would change this problem, but this is a conversation for another thread at another time."Those who sacrifice liberty for security, deserve neither." Benjamin Franklin

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.
Once I get it to publish ready maturity, I'll certainly post a copy here."Those who sacrifice liberty for security, deserve neither." Benjamin Franklin
