Though I'm curious, is the dispersion bonus from the Gallente Assault really that noticeable? -25%(Sharpshooter)-25%(Assault skill) would mean I would be getting a 50% reduction to dispersion.
So is it worth it for an avid AR fan such as myself?
I have never noticed a difference from skilling Assault Operations to level 5 nor Sharpshooter to level 5. I have gal assault level 3 on an alt to check it (because I'm curious about the bonus as well) but I don't feel the difference there either.

I would agree that it isn't worth it as much. But probably worth more than 25% reload speed ;).
Amarr assault has the most effective bonus out of all of the assault suits. The extra clip size for the Min assault is best felt when 1v1'ing a heavy which you shouldn't be doing anyway or gunning down a guy at distance when some of your bullets aren't hitting.

The extra clip size for the Min assault is best felt when 1v1'ing a heavy which you shouldn't be doing anyway or gunning down a guy at distance when some of your bullets aren't hitting. Well, the numbers don't seem to agree with you, as the Gallente Assault is the least popular Assault (from the latest numbers I've seen.)
Bonuses aren't everything....I didn't get the Cal assault for the bonus. I got it for the suit. So, the fact that more people may have cal assault than gal assault suits may not be simply because they like the reload speed to rail rifles. Because from what I see on the battlefield, the rail rifle is the least used rifle on the field.
So, apparently, they spec Cal assault for more than just the bonus. Because reload speed is worthless (especially when you don't use the rail rifle) in comparison to reducing dispersion and kick. The only thing is whether or not the bonus to dispersion is effective or not.

I have to admit that the Cal Assault is better off in its own territory. The Gallente can still wreck outdoors provided with cover, that's for certain.
It's the cal assault that needs cover...not the gallente assault.
And shields can't rep through HMG fire either
