Ok guys, this is my first post, so bear with me, I hope this helps.
My current Laser Carbine has an attack speed of 3.8, 105-510 damage, 30% to wound, medium armor penetration. I am a 1/1/3/2 novice carbineer. Using burstshot1 Ican do about 2500-3000 damage per shot on low Eng. resist creatures/npcs. All I did was look around for a really nice carbine, took me about 30 minutes.I bought my carbine for 17k it was 3.8 attack speed with 70-305 damage. Next thing I did was get it damage sliced, that jumped it to95-385 damage, which is very nice. I had been using this carbine for a few weeks and it served me well. While ata weapons shop I decided to grab some power-ups. I've only had the game for about 2 months so I thought you needed to be a weaponsmith or smuggler to use these. I grabbed3 crates of +32% to max dmg +16% to min damage of ranged weapon power ups. Just extract one from a crate and drag the item in your inventory over the carbine you wish to power-up. That jumped my carbine to 105-510 damage! wow! Now, power-ups only give you 100 uses, but thats plenty when all you do is spam burstshot or fullautosingle. A crate of 10 should run you about 1500-3500 credits. On my serverI found a wepaonshop that was selling 4.1 AT 65-305 dmg carbines for 12k, very reasonably priced. Dont accept any damage under 300 and any speed over 4.2. I would suggest getting 2 carbines like this in case you get a speed slice. Well I hope some people find this helpful, let me know what you guys think.

ya, but in the time it takes you to fire burstshot with that slow of a gun, i'll have hit you with 3-4 of comparable damage from my elite (yay for krayt tissue!)

(not figuring in carbine speed mods, because those keep changing)
I've got my nifty krayted / imperial stocked E11 carbine (I only used "vanilla" 30 max krayt tissues though)
AS 1.9 , 124 - 277 (. That thing will blow past most Elites speedwise
Here's the stats on a bunch of carbines I made for "personal use" (some krayted, some not, some imperial stocked, some not, all handmade by me though )
Laser avg damage: 186 @ 3.1 as : 60 dps
Elite avg damage: 176 @ 2.8 as : 62.8 dps
Elite avg damage: 143 @ 2.9 as : 49.31 dps
Elite avg damage 200 @ 3.8 as : 52.63 dps
Elite avg damage 257.5 @ 3.8 : 67.763 dps
DH17 Short avg damage: 216 @ 2.7 as : 80 dps
Enhanced E11 avg damage: 205 @ 2.7 as : 75.925 dps
E11 avg damage: 200.5 @ 1.9 as : 105.526 dps
DXR6 avg damage : 241 @ 4.1 as : 58.78 dps
laser carbine avg damage 207.5 @ 3.0 as : 69.166 dps
and (with 33% / 16% powerups, that is 143 - 368, or 255 at 1.9, or 134 DPS)
I know there are better carbines out there, but this is enough for me (BTW: Elite and E11 have AP1, Laser has AP2)
If I were to both attempting to figure in carbine speed mods, I'm sure this list would change drastically, but, unforunately, I forget the formula (It's something like... carbine speed / 100 * gun rate of fire * special delay)

Your 500 max damage Laser will hit from 630 to 3060 per shot with BurstShot1. Your firing speed will be 4.94 seconds per shot 
Your DPS is 373.5 against an AP0 and 0% Energy Resist target. Using FullAutoSingle2 gives you a 402.8 DPS.
Now while it isn't fair to compare yourself to a Master Carbineer at this stage of the game, but to give you an idea of my DPS on a few guns: NO POWERUPS
Laser: 1372.7
Elite: 1385.3
DXR6: 1345.3
DH17 Short: 1608.8
Of course those are not your average weapons and I have +25 Carbine Speed attachments, but that gives you an idea of what CAN be achieved in Carbineer. Its no Commando, but we pack a pretty hard punch
Go here to see my spreadsheets of all the calculations {thanks Nova}you could ever want on this topic

er what is DPS?
Damage Per Second
[(Max + Min) / 2] / Actual Attack Speed = DPS
The ONLY true way to compare guns, professions, characters IMO. Also note that the Max and Min need to be compared on a level playing field, i.e. AP, mitigation, resistances, etc.

Medium to Good Krayt Tissue, nothing awesome but the DH17 Short was +72 Max and decent speed.

even as a master rifleman i still never went krayt hunting because of the incredibly awkward looting system this game has. (if your grouped).
