Alpha 21 Quality 6 items worse than quality 5 by significant amount.

[TopAce6]

Summary: Quality 5 weapons such as M60 and Desert vulture are significantly better in durability and range then Quality 6.
Tested with dozens of weapons to account for % variance in each weapon.
basically Q6 is a massive downgrade

have 4 points in machine gunner if thats relevant, tho others reporting same issue that have different skills.
