Wow, even though the original message was posted a LONG time ago I'll chime in with my own personal opinion. Your best weapon as MBH/MCarbineer would depend on rather you're into PVP(Jedi) or PVE. For PVE I'd suggest a double capped E11 or Elite Carbine as they both have the same crafting caps and can have max damages over 1000.

If it's Jedi hunting that you're into then I suggest the Nym's Slugthrower Carbine. Whenever fighting against a Jedi it's important that you have two things - a high minimum damage and a Kinetic Weapon. The reasoning behind the need for a Kinetic weapon is to bypass PSGs which have been shown to reduce damage much more than originally anticipated. You'll need the high minimum damage in order to deal damage to those MDefenders or Aura users because in the current system the higher your target's Defense versus your Accuracy the closer towards the minimum your damage is scaled. With a good Nym's Slugthrower you should be able to get ~350 minimum damage + 170 Elemental Acid damage. This will in effect give you a 520 minimum damage on your weapon.
