Even though that is exactly what she did against Warnicke.

At any rate, I thought she preferred them because she was more deadly with them at close range. Where I imagine most of her gunfights will occur. If outside that range, something very bad has gone wrong.

I almost forgot. Another reason I thought she had a conventional weapon is because of stealth. I imagine that the HV has an easy time detecting a pulsar. Even a miniature version. But might not detect a conventional weapon hidden inside the mechanics of her arm and hand.

I always assumed that pulsars should be easily detectable in the HV, even before power up. We can detect guns now with X-Ray gear.

Heck, in the HV, technology should even be able to detect suicide bombers, even if the bombs are hidden inside the body.
