Favorite/Best ones (Use a lot and are rather cool):
Claymore : classic one shot high power Shotgun. Fun on the Human Solider for sure
Widow : Best single shot sniper rifle. Cool to use and effective with a SI on Gold.
Phalanx : One of the most rounded pistols. Light, accurate, decent damage and RoF. Carnifex MIGHT be better eventually, but RNG isn't giving me much upgrades for it.
Hurricane : Hard to use, but if you can use it, damm it's powerful.
Mattock : Solid, light, reliable, and still awesome (though not quite as much as in ME2). Would probably replace it with the Saber/Harrier/Typhoon, but don't have them yet.

Worst:
Javelin: It's COOL, just gets outclassed by the Widow soo bad it isn't funny. Needs some massive buff or something.
Particle Rifle: Might be usable, I just don't know how to make good use of it. Also for a UR is very much crap/meh.
Locust : Most. Ussless. Gun. Yet. Doesn't help that in ME2 it was a better AR than the AR (except the Mattock, but you could use both at the same time =D).
Incisor: Hello again roof. No I was trying to headshot that mook, but nice to see you again.
GPSMG: I find the chance to use a different SMG (even costing 20% CD) or that 2% CD for using it with ULM is more useful. Just don't see a use for it on a caster, and I'm not building a Solider around it.

 While I realize that these lists are completely subjective, it's pretty sad to see almost every weapon that actually has a learning curve on so many "worst" lists. Specifically, the Graal can be one of the best shotguns in the game (granted lag can severely impact its hit detection). I used to top leader boards with it on a regular basis. Yes, getting used to the reticle can take some time, but show me another weapon that can one shot headshot kill phantoms and others from across the map through full shields and barriers (bypassing shield gate especially on higher difficulties is a HUGE advantage). Anyone can spray at something with a Harrier or run up to something and blast it with a Claymore yet as soon as a weapon takes actual skill and accuracy to utilize everyone deems it crap and unusable. May just be me on this one but I really feel people are missing out by discrediting certain weapons before actually learning how to use them.. 

[Creston918]

Best in no particular order:

- (Black) Widow.
- Carnifex
- Reegar
- Harrier
- Hurricane

Worst :

Almost everything else. Yay, a balanced game! *rolls eyes*

[GeneralElectric]

Sniper Rifles: Valiant/Black Widow (Widow's ok for those who have low level ultra rares/promos)
Assault Rifles: Harrier/Typhoon
SMGs: Hurricane/Hornet
Shotguns: Piranha/Claymore/GPS
Pistols: Talon/Paladin/Scorpion

Since you said to choose the 5 best...

Valiant, Typhoon, Hurricane, Piranha, and Talon, if they're at Level X.

5 worst: Raptor/Incisor (take your pick), Vindicator/Collector Rifle ('cause who has the Collector at a decent level?), Locust, Scimitar, Acolyte (it's so situational and the charging time is ridiculous).

Why all the Acolyte hate? It's a great weapon for classes that struggle with shields and it's light. If you're trying to use it as a primary damage source, you're doing it wrong. But it will take a banshee down to armour in 4 shots at level one on gold.

Best (no order):
Phalanx
Claymore
Saber
Hurricane
Carnifex (boring, but you can't deny it's great at it's job)

Worst (no order):
Incisor
Locust
Geth Pluse Rifle
Kishock (a solid gun, ruined by misfires, flight time, etc when you aren't host with a perfect connection)
Geth Plasma SMG

2. Mattock, easy to use AR
3. Crusader, only on vanguard
4. Widow, just because

[o MaC BlAsTeD o]

Hmm my opinions...

Best
1. Paladin (High level it rocks with the ULW)
2. Raptor (Extremely underestimated)
3. Locust (Stylish lightweight awesome description)
4. Hornet (Not sure why I like it...)
5. Saber (Very accurate good for head shots)

Worst
1. Phalynx (What happened to my laser pointer....)
2. Plasma Shotgun (Overused)
3. Revenant (1 out of 10 bullets fired at mid range hit a atlas....)
4. Mattock (Does more damage per shot than the harrier??? Don't think so... Also ugly)
5. Stryker (I feel like I'm shooting rapid fire nerf footballs)

These are my opinions don't like them oh well. They won't change.

[Blind2Society]

The Javelin could use a buff of some sort but so many people putting it in the bottom 5 I don't understand.

[ImBanginUrGirlFriend]

Piranha
Typhoon
Claymore
Reegar
Hurricane
Honorable mention: Harrier

Worst: everything else

[randomfoo]

My personal list. My current Top 5 are at the top of my 'go tos'. I've gone through and played every gun in Gold (again whenever I X em and every time a gun's been rebalanced) ... except the Collector Rifle.

Top 5
---
1) Piranha (Light enough to be usable on casters. Godly on GIs, Destroyers, and Turians)
2) Claymore (Best damage in the game if you have the skills to use it.)
3) Harrier (What assault rifles should have been. err, with some extra clips)
4) Hurricane (Spent about a month using this on everything. Ridiculously fun)
5) Typhoon (Lots of fun on a Destroyer)

Notably these guns all have some weaknesses (mostly range, but some weight, ammo, so I consider them "balanced"), but synergize well w/ specific weapon bonuses and fit my style (aggressive CQC).

There are a lot of meh/mediocre guns (too many to list), but here's my list for the worst of the worst. Because of armor mechanics (and no offsetting shield multipliers) and the requirement for sustained out-of-cover shooting, most of the fast-firing guns are underpowered/underwhelming and make up most of the list.

5) Crusader (Edges out Eagle by a spot. So heavy. Shotgun w/ shield gate? Just outclassed.)
4) Geth SMG (Ranked even accounting for infinite shooting party trick and working ULM)
3) Locust (Admittedly a little fun as a head laser w/ Marksman. But even then, extremely ineffective. Use Tempest or PR (actual head laser) instead)
3) Geth Pulse Rifle (Actually not as weak as the Locust, but I just can't imagine *any* reason for using it)
1) Shuriken (Slightly better w/ the new AP barrel. A tough competition for #1, but no you should never be using this unless you're whole team equips it for laughs and you all go for SMG Gold Medals)

[RobertM525]

According to Grimy's Weapon Sheet (of pre-Earth weapons), the top 10 best weapons in terms of DPS (I'm taking the mean of "Mean DPS" and "Burst DPS") are:

1. M-300 Claymore
2. Cerberus Harrier
3. N7 Hurricane
4. M-76 Revenant
5. M-98 Widow
6. M-358 Talon
7. Javelin
8. M-77 Paladin
9. M-96 Mattock
10. M-25 Hornet

And the bottom 10 worst weapons (from worst to least-worst):

1. M-37 Falcon
2. M-12 Locust
3. M-97 Viper
4. Geth Submachine Gun
5. M-8 Avenger
6. M-4 Shuriken
7. Geth Pulse Rifle
8. Krysae Sniper Rifle
9. Collector Rifle
10. M-3 Predator

Interesting to see how these align with people's top 5 lists. The only odd-balls to me are the Falcon (lowest DPS weapon happens to be on a number of people's best lists—obviously for reasons other than raw damage output) and the Javelin (understandable given its rarity and the shield gate issues single-shot sniper rifles suffer from).
