Hmm, I'd say Swordsman for PvE and Fencer for PvP? I haven't tried either of these templates, but that seems to be the general feeling. The Blast damage you get from the Swordsman's Power Hammer is avery nice complement to the Rifleman's damage types (Kinetic too, I guess 
). Swordsman isn't really bad in PvP either, especially when combined with Rifleman (just that Fencer defenses are very, very nice 
).

I am Mrifleman/ MSwordsman, TKA 4-0-0-0 and Medic 1-0-4-0 and for PVE it is amazing. I was MRifleman/Mswordsman TKA 4304 and that was alot better for PVP. Fast, close range status attacks + knockdowns and all that defense from TKA really made a difference against players, but against krayts, it is almost worthless.
With the Msword/Mrifle TKA 4-3-0-4 these were the defenses I had
Block +70
Combat Equilibrium +40
Counterattack +100
Defense Acuity +56
Defense vs Blind +30
Defense vs Dizzy +35
Defense vs Intimidate +20
Defense vs Knockdown +45
Defense vs Posture Change +70
Defense vs Stun +75
Melee Defense +122
Melee Mitigation +3
Ranged Defense +132
Ranged Mitigation +3
Two-handed Melee Toughness +43
Unarmed Toughness +53
Combat Equilibrium +40
Counterattack +100
Defense Acuity +56
Defense vs Blind +30
Defense vs Dizzy +35
Defense vs Intimidate +20
Defense vs Knockdown +45
Defense vs Posture Change +70
Defense vs Stun +75
Melee Defense +122
Melee Mitigation +3
Ranged Defense +132
Ranged Mitigation +3
Two-handed Melee Toughness +43
Unarmed Toughness +53
Capped range defense and nearly capped melee. Decent defense vs knockdown. I could not find anything else to go along with rifle/sword that was as good and would still let me keep meditate. Hope this helps.

For PVP, You should check this site out
http://swgcb.yogn.net/swg-cb.php
Its lets you input your template and then gives you a report of exactly what your defenses will be. I find it incredibly helpful.
For ideal PVP, Master Fencer, Master Rifleman, Pistoleer 0030, TKA 4000 is an amazing template. Punch it in and check out the stats.
