Most of the current and former service members I've talked to about this subject tell me they'd rather carry "a few extra mags" for their M16 or M4. Outside SOF, the general consensus seems to be that pistols are borderline useless in combat.
But, as I said, that's just from the ones I've talked to, which is a tiny minority of the whole armed forces, so who knows.
