Surprised nobody's mentioned the Scorpion, especially when combined with Squad Cryo.

PewPewLazerz FTW. I use only the Particle Rifle and the Javelin....

Note about the Particle Rifle that someone else made. It gets more powerful after it has used 50 of its charge, so putting the mag upgrade on it gives more time at max damage.

When I'm rolling with Garrus and Javik, I have them both packing particle rifles with damage buffs. In addition to providing me with a blazing, shield-melting crossfire, it can also aid target recognition.

Liara gets one of the fast firing SMGs, but she's not exactly there to shoot is she?

On the whole, I've found myself paying much less attention to what my squadmates have/do since I addopted the M-37 Falcon as my primary weapon. Equipped with incendiary rounds, it can rip apart a squad of canibals in about a second flat. And trivializes everything except Banshees, even on Insanity.

A very good thread on squad weapons:  social.bioware.com/forum/Mass-Effect-3/Mass-Effect-3-Gameplay-Strategy-amp-Builds-Discussion-Spoilers-allowed/Squadmate039s-Best-Weapon-of-Choice-10117648-1.html

Try out the ADAS (from the firefight pack), you'll wipe the floor with any mission with that gun

 Doesnt matter as much on insanity. Squad mate's main advantage on hight difficulty are their abilities, not their weapon skillz. Either way, particle rifle is very nice on squaddies with ARs (never liked it personally, looks too silly) and hurricane on SMG users. Paladin/carnifex if you want them using HPs. Never use the scorpion. (The ai doesnt fire it fast enough for it to be effective) Not sure which the best SR is but I would guess the black widow or krysae.

TBH, I didn't notice any difference in my squad mate's fighting capabilities no matter what weapons they were using. However, excuse my ignorance, it's been a while, but the pistol that shoots sticky explosives (is it the Scorpion?) is a good one, other than that make your decisions based purely on the amount of damage a weapon does - as mentioned above, squad mates don't have the weight/cooldown issues that Shepard has, and they'll never run out of ammo, so capacity isn't an issue.
But, as others have already said, it's your squad's powers that matter the most on insanity. I found myself relying heavily on combo's, grenades and proximity mines, so I went for Vanguard with Warp, and took one 'power-heavy' squadmate (Javik, Kaidan or Liara) and one 'brute force' squadmate (Garrus or James) on each mission.

For me it's Liara and EDI with the Geth SMG. I use the Squad Cryo and they are freezing every other enemy. EDI is a Tank and Liaria stays back with me for support and power usage.

It's not to say that it's the best weapon, but it was the first SMG I fully upgraded at the start and I just stuck with it.

If it ain't broke...don't fix it.

Well for the hardest mission I encountered which would be Priority Earth I used Tali and James both armed with a Claymore. James had a Saber also and Tali had a Phalanx. I had no trouble at that point save for a few deaths related to my own stupidity. I noticed at times James could stop a Brute mid charge with a blast from his Shotgun and Banshees were cut down quickly. The rest of the game was a breeze (I find the Sentinel extremely overpowered) save for a couple of Phantom encounters in which case Liara with stasis was a godsend.
