Reflex sight is an NX variant of the Itech scopes, and he's meaning by 'iron sights' is what guns have normally. Guns normally have their own sights. What we add though, the ACOG/Itech/Reflex/Holoshot are after-market attachments. It's better to use what's on the guns also, given you can then start sparing yourself some GP.

Nutshot actually does slightly higher damage, it's a damage multiplier but not like it used to be. Where it was a OHKO in the starting. It's mostly a gimmick anymore that makes me sometimes laugh, it's so rare but it's kinda a flashy little joke.

Default weapon being slightly more powerful? Still so what's wrong with that? It'd actually have some use, instead of being tossed aside or used by people when they run out of GP? I tried using it but sometimes, it's just difficult with spray-happy G36/L85's and more. M16 is pretty underpowered, and is direly a difficult to use gun.
