A gun should do the same damage as another gun given it's setup the same.

A coachman with the same mods as another coachman should do the same damage.

But make it "Rarer" and suddenly it does more damage? How?

The receivers in Fo4, I could forgive for game-play purposes, maybe you could reload your brass with more powder or whatever, but the rarity system just doesn't make sense, and honestly pisses me off.

I’m confused. Are you talking about rarity or (what I like to call) quality? A rare weapon has 1-3 extra modifiers, like +10% damage to humanoids. Quality affects base damage. An Advanced higher quality weapon does more base damage than Calibrated, for instance.

Yeah. It bugs me, it doesn't make sense to me. I know it's for gameplay purposes, but I'd rather more guns to fill up the higher levels than a few guns with "quality" modifiers.

I don’t disagree. Those guns could use bigger and more expensive ammo also.
