Actually, you are completely on the money with this. I never used the TMP for fucking years, save for a little of the first act on my first playthrough ever, and that was back around 2006 or whatever. I tried the TMP for the first time in eleven years my last run and I realized just how valuable it is, not for sheer power but for utility. Much like how a 9mm shot to the leg or head will stun an enemy, so too will one of the TMP ammo stun an enemy. It is super handy and I'll probably never use the handgun again.
Yeah its nuts. If you use it correctly, you will never be starving for ammo. Lay off the trigger a little bit. Also use it as a semi auto, and youll be laughing ---
