Well, the PDW, MSMC, and Peacekeeper are all similar to Assault Rifles due to higher damages/range profiles, especially the Peacekeeper.

Honestly, the PDW and MSMC are completely balanced weapons as-is (because someone here thinks overused = overpowered), as both have high recoil for ~750 RPM, reload slowly, and are, statistically speaking, the worst SMG's at a distance. Not to mention the MSMC has a small 30 round magazine.
