I recently had pistoleer and I didnt like it at all. Ive mastered marksman and Im looking to combo a ranged profession with my tk. It seems like the overall best is rifleman, but I want your opinions.
I also like the guns that the riflemen use 
But I dont wanna jump right into it without asking the people who have been there and done that

I think Rifleman is darned hard to grind but once u get master things go smoothly- until the CURB. Rifles are almost totally hard core damage and are slow and inaccurate until master. If you decide to go there, do the accuracy bar 1st and store up a lot of combat xp from TK.

Or you can just use a /pointblankarea1 macro at the lairs til master, that way you never miss and at abilities 2 youfire fastwith a 5.0 or lower speed t-21.

I've been Rifle/TKA for over a year now. I've enjoyed it immensily.

well..that you have master marks...you have a nice +5 speed to grind with 
If you have gone up something else, then by all means go rifleman. You can relocate your skill points when the CU hits, so thats a good thing.
Get lairs, preferably quenkers on dant, and spam pointblankarea1 for a while. In a group, you would get 3k xp with each quenker on the floor. I usually get +20k xp per lair, and they don't take long, even faster as you get speed, and when you get accuracy, you can try flurryshot/headshotting them before they come. When they do, run for the lair and spam area...it works really well. Have some patience, someone to group with, a good mindbuffer, a good rifle with less that 5.0 speed (I recommend a laser rifle...nice and fast).
rifleman and tk sounds like a good combination..as long as both can hit head for until the CU

It definitely depends on your reason for the ranged profession. If it is to get in as much damage as possible in before you attacker reaches you and you switch to TKM, then by all means Rifleman is your best choice. If you are looking for defenses you already have them, because pistoler and TKM are pretty hard to beat unless you take swordsman but then you don't have any ranged options for attack. All in all I think the best combo for TKM is Rifleman. Very hard to beat the damage capabilities, the ability to take cover and deal out damage pretty heavily until you advisary closes to TKM range on you.

Im an Rifleman and ex-TKM. I loved Rifleman/TKM, we can damage every Nightsister, have some close combat defence when we get unwanted aggro. Also you have a mind hitting attack with both Rifleman and TKM. Its a veryeffective combination.
