It's not the weapon, it's the suit.
CQC DEMANDS speed and stamina, and yet we have the same speed and stamina as the Cal Assault.
How it's supposed to be:
Minmatar > Gallente > Caldari > Amarr
How it actually is:
Speed:
Minmatar > Gallente = Caldari > Amarr
Stamina:
Minmatar > Amarr > Gallente = Caldari
Combine that we the shortest range rifle and the Gallente Assault is requires you to have at least one kin cat, otherwise you're better off just using any other assault weapon.
It's not like the bonus is a big deal.

Would that stop your goddamn crying?
I'm still waiting for my Plasma Flamethrower.

Your point? I could make an entire essay on the Amarrian items I've been waiting for.
None of it is free.

It's not like the bonus is a big deal. The Gallente have Kinetic Catalyzers for a reason you know. Add it with an armor plate plus ferroscale and your momentum will be reminiscent of a juggernaut. The way the slots are layed out for the Gallente Assault this is most likely what was envisioned.
I use dual kin cats on my fits for a reason ya know.
But it forces me to either have paper thin armor or slow ass regen, either way I tend to fit more extenders than usual.
Considering the suit isn't a shield tanking suit, this makes it sub optimal.
Minmatar Assaults and Caldari Assaults can make better use of the AR because they can fit kin cats, while having their main tank still be strong.

So how can the galASS compete with/against sentinels in CQC?
I think some kinda of edge in EWAR would help, perhaps a change to the suites base stats and not a role bonus as mentioned earlier. As long as you shoot heavies in the head in CQC they go down faster than most proto Assaults.
...
Unless you're hugging the sentinel, you're better off aiming for center of mass, because you'll be missing 50% of your shots when trying to hip fire the head.
If the Gal Assault bonus was strong then maybe.
