I am presently at 1444 BH and I have some questions.
1. Has anybody ever looted anything other than a Smugglers Toolkit off a mark?
2. What's up with Assault armor? Doesn't seem to do anything. In fact I think I take less damage without it.

If you had your armor pre-CU you need to make sure that you fit it, the armor type was changed again depending on the professions now, if you haven't refit your armor it won't work very well.
The devs are working to make the BH and smuggler professions more important and more connected. Eventually there will be smuggler missions like BH and Jedi missions. If a smuggler drops a contract, they will now be elligible to be hunted by BH just like Jedi. It's kind of a....you have to reply on your enemy for what you need system. BH targets drop smuggler items, also drop CA for Jedi clothing. The BH can sale the items to smugglers (who they will eventually be able to hunt) or have the BH use the slicing tools to slice something the BH can use. Etc.
They -do- drop other items but mostly it's CA's for Jedi, or Smuggler items.

Where'd you read that?!!
I can't wait if that is true.

It is somewhere in these forums. It was a Dev sticky for "possible future updates" to the profession. It isn't in the workings -yet-, but they're talking about it. I think it said that they were starting with NPC's and then allowing players to do it.
I'll see if I can find the link, it was an old announcement.

The dev post I believe you are referring to was made by greenmarine, which I don't think is a SOE employee anymore. In other words, don't hold your breath on the smuggler missions. It might happen, but it's not very likely.
The smuggler profession seems doomed to be nothing more than a slicemonkey and drug pusher in the eyes of Lucas Arts and SOE.
