I held onto my old weapons because they have usefully tactical value. If you don't have access to said tactic, then come up with a new one to counter it. My matador 64 with the rubydooby barrel perk is perfectly suitable for my lack of felwinters. I simply adjust accordingly to that gun, like those who got them when they did had to. There's always an alternative. Put your big boy pants on and step up to the playing field with better skills and tact. Or you can continue to whine, but I'll suggest you get some lube to prime yourself with if you're going to accept defeat.
