As Exoduss said, a lot of sniper-players changed their mainweapon to AR or SMG. (So did I).
If the sniper gets even weaker it's really just a support weapon. Of course, that's "realistic" - but AC will suffer from it. The helmet's make it even worse - on big maps where sniper makes sense, the amount of armor compensates it.
I can't judge about the "weapon-balance" of just one weapon, you always have to see them in comparison. So I'd like to see solution number 2, SMG on 15,5 and AR how it is atm OR solution number 3, SMG on 15 and AR on 20.
