Forum:Does the Rifleman Class Mod only affect rifles, not machineguns?

I saw an earlier post that said the Rifleman Class mod +% damage only affects Combat Rifles, not Machineguns. Is this true?

I've got a 650 Rifleman Class Mod with +36% Damage, and +2 Assault skill, +3 Overload skill, and + 2 Impact skill, and I'm trying to work out if I'd be better using my 660 Heavy Gunner Class Mod with +70% Weapon Magazine Size, and +3 Impact skill, +3 Overload skill, and +4 Metal Storm skill.

I do most of my killing with machineguns, only using scoped combat rifles for distance shots. If +% damage does work with machineguns I think I'm better off using the Rifleman Mod; if it doesn't I'm better off using the Heavy Gunner Mod. What do you reckon? Outbackyak 21:20, April 11, 2010 (UTC)
