I found someone post an interesting view on how to judge weapons against each other, they took the base stats of the gun (RoF, Impact, Range, Stability, Reload, Aim Assist, and Mag Size) and added them together to come up with a gun score (my term). I found this to be a very interesting way to judge weapons and decided to take it a step further, I entered in all of the primary exotics, year 2 legendary, and some select year 1 legendary in to a spreadsheet to compare these weapons. I just wanted to share my results and maybe start a discussion.
These gun scores do not factor in perks.
(when comparing guns of different types I think it is best to not include mag size, because a single bullet on an auto rifle is not equal to a single bullet on a hand cannon)
[b]Top 5 Exotics[/b]
1. MIDA Multi-Tool - 376

When comparing guns of the same type Mag Size was factored in which did change the ranking of some guns:

If anyone can show me a way to make a google doc public for everyone to view, while keeping it locked from editing I can include the link to it hear if you wanna dig deeper.
This is a work in progress and I feel like the best way to really give a gun a good score would be to adjust the score, by maybe doing a weighted average giving certain stats like stability more importance.
