I got no problem with the Uzi. You don't use an automatic weapon for accuracy. It's got a good spread for clearing a room or a hallway, and it's a lot more compact than a shotgun.
I don't get too hung up on specific weapons for specific characters. I try to keep in mind what a character generally does, when I re-equip them. For the most part, as long as Scarlett has her crossbow, and Wild Bill has his Peacemakers, I'm happy.
I will not outfit any of my joes with an M16 or M4. These guns are notorious for reliability issues, and I figure GI Joe has the budget to supply their people with weapons that will actually kill something.
Standard pistol is Marauder's M1911A1. Standard Rifles are the M14EBR and the SCAR-H. If something more compact is required without getting into pistol calibre, then it's the G36C. I might keep Snake Eyes with an Uzi, but for anybody else needing an SMG they get the MP7. My blue shirts use UMPs, while caped Cobra Commander is sporting a Luger and a Walther PPK.
I'm still debating if I should upgrade Beach Head, from that Berreta pea shooter he comes with.
NOBODY uses a laser rifle, unless it's connected to a backpack, and they're classified as a laser rifle trooper of some sort.
