Certain pieces of tech, like what? As long as you have faction guns, all the rest is common-pool and shouldn't be nerfed.
As for guns with appalling pvp performance, that's no fault of the new system and is an issue to be raised with the balance folks.
EDIT: Laser cannons/photon blasters could really do with getting balanced and tuned. Some are great, some are utterly crap. I think this would go a long way to appeasing the freelancers.
