well id say reliabiltiy and effectiveness of the caliber are the msot important... if the gun jams or doesnt effectively stop someone your in trouble
reliabiltiy being most important cause your not at the range in combat your in the mud, snow whatever it might be and your weapon wont be as clean...
ergonomics also importnat
lightweight is always nice to have, compactness is good for close qtr
accuracy and effective range arnt so much of an issue with today's selection they are gneerally accurate enoguht o hit human sized targets out to 100-200y without much effort... most of them have an effective range that falls into the 300-600m
