I'm refering to the AR, CR and RR. This does not include alternate weapons such as Assault Rail Rifle, Breach AR's and the like.
What if, like the SCR does, these 3 rifles had an extra firing option that worked best when used with an assault suit?
I'm thinking something like these:
AR: Ionized Plasma (I couldn't think of any better sounding name  ) or Sustained Fire
- Basically I think that you could begin using these rounds by attempting to reload your weapon while the clip is already full, and once you begin firing the shots come out a darker color and are able to travel at longer range at SMG level firerate. However if you do this, your AR gains some noticeable dispersion at range and during hip-fire. It would have to be enough extra dispersion to be considered a penalty even if you were to use it on a proto gal assault with AR sharpshooting 5 but not too much so that its still usable for lower SP fits and other suits. The AR would also gain additional zoom while in ADS but would also have slower ADS movement and if you hold down the trigger for too long the dispersion becomes more noticeable.
CR: Explosive Rounds
- I Imagine something like a firecracker loaded inside each projectile or a combustible coating that causes bullets to detonate on impact, giving the CR a small blast radius (like 0.50 blast radius) that causes a very small amount of splash damage.
- The effects of using these pellets involve: dealing additional damage against vehicles and infantry (in particular against sentinels) but when firing these particular rounds your ADS and weapon handling becomes slower and each burst costs double the ammunition it would normally cost. These bullets would be loaded into a separate barrel that requires a cooldown period of say... 40 seconds? after you've emptied your clip before you can use them again. Reloading the CR while using these bullets would jam the CR and begin the 40 second cooldown. You would still be able to use ordinary ammo while the 40 seconds reset though.
RR: Assisted Fire (or something else if anyone hopefully has something better in mind  )
- This allows you to have better hip-fire accuracy with the RR than we do atm (but not as much as it did before the nerf) and it also lowers charge rate significantly and slightly boosts headshot damage in exchange for lowering some of its range. For some penalty, If you use this for too long your RR could get jammed for about 3-6 seconds much like what happens when a Scrambler overheats.
I know none of this is really necessary, or likely to happen, but if these rifles were to get an extra special little something to make them more interesting to use, what do you think that little something would be and in which way do you think it should change these rifles? Without simply ripping off the Scramblers Charged Shot.
Also, how OP/UP, or simply pointless do you think these crazy ideas of mine would be? And what would you guys/gals think of instead?

The question is, would they fire Core nades in a direct line?

They wouldn't fire Core Locus Grenades at all. Simply low velocity small calibre anti personnel explosive devices. Or LVSCAP (SCAP rounds for short) and if you wanted to really make such weapons Minmatar have the Amarr call them "Scalper" Rounds as a result of Minmatar using them to blast them out of cover.
