Enemy weapons are usually some of the most effective weapons since they are the weapons your enemy will have the least amount of experience fighting against.
Actually, in this case it might be different.

Seems like PS2 'unlocks' will focus mostly on mods and upgrades, they probably don't want people without specific unlocks to operate 'better' weapons.

I'm not a big fan of it but it does make some sense. I remember having some VS 'friends' drop a stockpile of Lashers (oh the Lasher 2.0 days)
