If by some bizzare chance Forbin is wrong... I would imagine it is similar in rationale to why Batman has kryptonite on his belt... you just never know, until you need it.
I consider it a nostalgic piece of equipment from his past as a mercenary with Marcus Cole.

Comedy answer: To open beer can.
Cool answer: Because sometimes he doesn't just want to annihilate you with magic, tear you apart with his metal arms or get his henchmen to swarm you. Sometimes he'll just pull out that pistol and shoot you in the head.
One can never be too prepared.

I figure the same reason Saddam Hussein carried one.

Once, while addressing a meeting of the Iraqi National Assembly in 1982, Saddam noticed one parliamentarian in the audience passing a note to another. Assuming the worst - that they were plotting to assassinate him - he promptly pulled out his pistol and, in the midst of delivering his speech, shot the two. Both died on the spot.

Single Pistol Corruptor. Unless, of course, it clones itself when drawn. Hell, he's a god's avatar, he should be able to reroll as a Quad Pistols Corruptor...
It's not like any of the players need backpacks, holsters or slings to carry their weaponry.

I've always noticed that Lord Recluse has a pistol on his belt. What's it for? Is it just a normal handgun or does he have something "special" to use it for?

Probably the same reason Dr. Doom carries his Mauser Pistol:
"to dispose of weaker enemies whom he considers unworthy to kill with his armor's weaponry."
Though I do like to point out a small, interesting detail. Judging by that wallpaper picture, Lord Recluse is either A.) left-handed, or B.) a left-handed shooter.

Well, that means so is everyone else, since the pistol on the Official belt is on the left, too.
