I think the biggest problem a lot of people have is "Shank Burn" I believe it was present on most of the weapons that were first sold. I can assume this only made people dislike the guns in general, just grouping them all together as "bad." Hell, I didn't even know there was a version 2 of the guns until a friend pointed out he was killed by "Wolfslayer's Claw II". My problem with these guns personally is how big they appear on screen. I love the pulse rifle, but it's just really big and hard to see the right side of my screen sometimes.
