I hope so its what i have now. I would like to know if the carbineer specials will work with commando weapons. Charge shot with a flamethrower would just be awesome. Gives a new meaning to crowd control.
But you will be able to use 2 kinds of armor which could come in handy.

You are supposed to be able to use specials accross professions - as long as its a ranged special I expect you can use it on a hvy weapon.
Although....they stopped us adding Pups to heavy weapons.....
The fact that we get no specials make me think they will be useable - but if FLamer is a cone by default, what effect will using an area attack have? Double cone? Double hit? Or won't work?
Interesting possiblities....

You can use most ranged specials with all heavy weapons. With odd exceptions where some carbineer specials require a automatic carbine.
Commandos do have specials too, but they have all been built into the weapons, hence why you won't see them in the skill trees. Nearly all our weapons do area damage and apply some sort of state affect with every shot 
Check out the weapon descriptions on TC-EP3. So if you add other ranged specials on top of our built in specials, and you have awesome damage givin weapons!

I was wondering about this as i'm considering M-Commando / M-Rifles /carbineer 0044.Really hoping i can use improved conceal shot or advanced sniper shot with heavy weapons.

Im guessing you can, simply because of the new master level rifle. Not sure if there are anyu restrictions on what specials can be used with what weapons.. In my head it sound wrong with a snipershot done with a rocketlauncher.. but who knows
