Carbines, definitely.

My carbine is just as good as many rifles, and in plenty of cases, even better. For example, someone posted an HLC thread... my carbine is almost that good WITHOUT a PuP. A damage PuP would put it with almost exactly the same stats. You also get the most powerful snare in the game, combined with a knockdown that almost always sticks and does good damage.

You get an attack with a 1.9 damage modifier (Improved Leg Shot), also.

Pistols requires you to be within 25m (their force power and saber throw range), and Rifles gives very little defense (so when that they do close to melee, you're in trouble.) With Pistols, they'll carve you up. If you get snared or rooted when you're a rifleman, game over.

EDIT: Oh, before I forget... Carbines is Battle Armor cert, but you can get 7000 energy resist armor for it very easily. Although it can't reach into the 8000s like Recon can, the difference between 7k and 8k is only a few percentage points of reduction -- maybe only a few points of damage in actual combat.
