Call me crazy, but I've been finding my Bad Juju to be the more potent PVP weapon. I know everyone is calling for a nerf to the Red Death, but in my opinion, I don't think that's necessary. I've only got a couple reasons why, so I'm curious as to what the community has to say as well.
1. Bad Juju has higher stability, much higher with the Perfect Balance perk. I am able to land more bullets on head shots much easier with Bad Juju than Red Death. Sure, the Red Death does much much more damage than the Juju in every way, but I felt the stability of Red made it a little harder to keep piling on the precision shots. It's still a daunting weapon, which makes every encounter much more of a challenge.
2. Full Auto on Juju makes it much lazier to fire. Red takes a lot of work! Please note the sarcasm there. But even though you can fire Red as you can pull the trigger, I get more bursts off with the Juju just because I'm able to just hold and go. When both combatants are moving around, as you should be in PVP, then sometimes it helps to be able to fire off more rounds. That's what made ARs so good until Bungie nerfed the base damage of them into oblivion. Give ARs the damage back and I think there'd be a much more varied use of weapoons.
Got a Pulse rifle you prefer? Think I'm right/wrong? Lemme know!

I prefer coiled hiss 1919. It was the first pulse rifle I ever used, and if out preformed shadowprice, which is arguably one of the best legendary auto rifles that has been released. I did a time to empty magazine test and an accuracy test. Coiled hiss emptied it's 30 round magazine almost a second or so faster than it took shadowprice to empty it's 25 round mag. It also had better stability and bullet grouping when compared to shadowprice.
