(Stuff about AR's and the CPM)
Personally, my biggest gripe with the AR is the kick being bugged (or at very least, poorly implemented) and wolfman refusing to acknowledge it. What I mean by this is : Kick is exponential based on time firing, not based per bullet. IE: A bullet fired at the beggining of the clip will have significantly less kick than one fired after a few seconds of steady fring. This means that anyone who is smart enough to know that you should always be burst firing, is almost completely unaffected by any kick worth mentioning. Whereas anyone who just holds the trigger and goes full auto, sees a massive amount of kick in the last 15 rounds or so of their clip.
It makes no sense, and defintely contributes to the "AR EZ MODE" impressions people get. That is the one change I'd personally make to ARs before even touching the damage or range.
I'm also in the camp that the TTK has gone a little fubar and could use some looking at.
But, in regards to your actual question : The CPM is pretty much doing nothing about AR's. We've flat out told CCP on NUMEROUS occasions to take balance feedback from the main forums FIRST and then come to us if they need a filter for all the badposting. Balance isn't our job as a collective council, and aside from us raising red flags and saying "OH GOD THIS IS GOING TO BE HORRIBLE" we've tried as best as we can to keep our collective noses out of it, and to tell them to make devposts asking for feedback on whatever.

When I talk about AR I mean AR and ScR right now, possibly RR and CR.
Though, if you want to talk about problems... Just wait until the CR hits. (Remember when the breach SMG was king? Yeah, it's gonna be that all over again, but with more range) For all intents and purposes the CR is pretty much an SMG with more accuracy and range.
Rail rifle is going to be entirely underwhelming or hilariously good.
However, aside from telling CCP when they first told us the stats "Yeah, CR is going to be OP as hell", they haven't been told from our end how to adjust them. Like said above. We urged them to post the stats and get peoples' thoughts from the general public.
