How do you make duellists with hand weapon and pistol??

Or how do you even make normal ones with hand weapon or two hand weapons? I think the first one is the harder, though...

My duelists are a mix of the old Empire Foot soldiers with Pistols cut from the Militia sprues added to the Empire foot soldier arms and the new Pistolier arms added to the old Empire foot soldiers.

Even easier would have been using militia but these didn't have the right look for my army.

mine are mostly militia. Almost all have pistols because that's the best way to run them. they can shoot and move and stand and shoot and still get 2 attacks in cc.

does the empire militia box contain arms with pistols?

does the empire militia box contain arms with pistols?

yes, it comes with a right arm cocked up and a left arm straight out and fireing. With a little work (greenstuff or pinning) you can cut the pistol hands off and place them on arms with different poses.

Id use the militia box (as has been mentioned) also check out the Morheim miniatures range, as well as classic and collectors models- for my DoW Araby army my Duellists are made from the empire flagellents with militia arms and greenstuff, to make arabian types in flowing robes- basically my advice would be to just have a good look at all the ranges for suitable models/bits
