How about switch the current Caldari and Gallente Assault bonuses, but also have them apply to all Hybrid weapons?
Caldari:
5% reduction to hybrid light/sidearm hip fire dispersion and kick per level.
Gallente:
+5% to reload speed of hybrid light/sidearm weapons per level.
-Yes the bonuses are not as popular as clip size or heat reduction, but they would apply to more weapons.
-Caldari Assault suits would be more effective at close range with the Rail Rifle/Magsec SMG than any other suit.
-Gallente would be able to get back in the fight faster after emptying their AR clip. Reload speed is a lot more important at short range.
As I write this I realize that just reversing the bonuses makes both of them better. But I also like the bonuses applying to all Hybrid weapons.

If Gallente get rang, then it canGÇÖt apply to all Hybrid weapons, as that would give them a Rail Rifle and Sniper Rifle advantage over the Caldari.
I think the reload bonus would be a big advantage with a high damage close quarters rifle such as the Assault (Plasma) Rifle.

It just occurred to me that if Gallente were given the Reload Bonus, even if it only applied to Blaster weapons, the bonus would apply to:
-Assault Rifle 
-Shotgun
-Plasma Cannon 
I am thinking that Reload Speed would not be considered a crap bonus for Gallente!

Well, no, it wouldn't be too crappy, but considering the alternatives, it's not as good. Plus, again, that delves into the Commando area, which is one reason why the Caldari want a change.
The Caldari are not impressed with the Reload bonus because at the range you would normally use a Rail Rifle at, when you duck behind cover to reload you have all the time in the world to do it.
At Assault Rifle ranges when you duck behind cover to reload, the guy you were shooting at is libel to come around the corner looking for you! So the faster you can reload and get back in the fight the better.
I am also agreeing with the OPGÇÖs premise of having the Caldari and Gallente bonuses apply to all Hybrid weapons, so it would also provide the benefit of versatility. By switching the current bonus and making them apply to all Hybrid weapons, they get the greater benefit with their own weapons, but still get some benefit with the other Hybrid weapons.
As for being too much like the Commando bonus, the Assault bonus would also apply to the Ion Pistol, Bolt Pistol, and Magsec SMG.

Keep in mind that if Caldari and Gallente bonuses are made to effect all Hybrid weapons, the Gallente bonus would also effect the Sniper Rifle (Charged has a 3 round clip in Delta) and the Bolt Pistol.
