I'm looking into getting one for 280k, but I want to know if there is much better out there. I've heard of them in the 700's, but only very good ones. Also, is 460 max good for an E-11, 250k? Any help would be appreciated

laser carbines get really mitigated. and energy is resisted by psg's so the damage will be minimal.

Probly better trying a Krayt'd DXR6 acid only hits armor (bypasses PSGs) and the dxr has decent min dmg.

A 600 max is still a good weapon for PvP.
Even though ADK PSGs are common, they're not so common that everyone you encounter uses them, let alone regular PSGs in general.
Thus, your 593 (~600) Laser will deal significant damage, but I wouldn't immediately stop right there. Try to get yourself a better weapon whenever you can. Often its much easier to simply obtain/buy high damage tissues and get carbines custom-crafted.
The DXR6 would be a prime choice if you can obtain 6 identical high-damage tissues, but if you only have 4, a Laser is great too. 593 is a good start though

i just got ripped off for 6 86 damage tissues today, 
i swear that 220 plus 86 doesnt equal 256, but i guess the WS cant add it seems she substitued a set of base tissues. it isnt even stocked or scoped. i guess i am a noob that doesnt know any better

220 is the stocked base-damage for a DXR6. If you drop the stock, you lose about 40 max damage. 180. Substract 10 for the replacement of Krayt Tissue from standard Power Handlers, 170. Add your krayt tissue value.. 170+86 = 256.
SSeems your WS did use the tissues, but didn't use a stock, which really does bite, as it would have been about 296 with one. Remember to always subtract about 10 max damage from the base weapon for Tissue. IE, a Laser Carbine is usually around 320 max stocked, so you need 90 tissue (not 80!) to make it reach 400 unsliced.

I know this may sound stupid but do you have to tell the WS to stock it or do you give them the stock or what..?

Not true, I have a 118-588 and 112-609 damage LC and they both do a crapload of damage in PVP, upwards of around 700-900 using sprayshot, confusion and crippling- over 1K vs a KD target.
