Thirty seconds of charge time? Doesn't sound hugely unbalanced to me, considering the fast pace of deathmatch.

More like 10secs. you dont NEED to load up the whole mag, you can just wait for like 5 shots and shoot just them.

It wasn't really overpowered by itself, it just made the pistol more useful than the smg. Most people would just run around charging their pistol, fire, then switch to the smg. The bug wasn't practical in combat, but it did give an added chance to magnums, crossbows and rockets.

All the insta gib weapons had a weakness.  The magnum did not.  It got nerfed.  It isn't a problem anymore.  Problem solved.

I'm not surprised at all. Sounds like an oversight to me. Come to think of it, wasn't the standard HLDM magnum just as strong?

Oh, ok. I remembered it as being 100% accurate and rather deadly.
