Geth Pulse Rifle is great against shields but overall Vindicator is a lot better.
And Revenant is the best imho 
Not sure, a fully upgrade Avenger Assualt Rifle is not to bad.
The problem I have with the revenant rifle is that awful kickback it does, seems a lot more noticable on that weapon then either the Avenger or Vindicator rifle.
The Vindicator rifle stinks, low ammo capcitiy and 5 bursts shot at a time which can get anoying. (Although in the description it says it can be upgraded to full-auto, instead of the short bursts it does, but not quite sure how to do that.)
I don't know much about the Geth Rifle only because I think that's only available at higher difficulty (which I'll probably never do, cause I know how bad your AI teammates scale with you, and I feel Normal is just right)
Remember that the Revenant deals insane damage. Out of AR, it should only be burst-fired for maximum effect. Never let it rip without AR. Also, It shouldn't really be compared to the 2 rifles. I mean, come on, it's a machine gun. It has lower range than the other 2 but completely kicks Harbinger's ass right up to insanity. Just think of its range as a long range shotgun, that's how close you have to be to be effective. Aim at enemies' feet and let it recoil up the body - the Revenant annihilates any humanoid on the field in one clip.
The Vindicator is awesome. Don't talk bad about it

Heightened Rush + Vindicator 2/5 upgrades drops ordinary troops on Insanity in two headshot bursts. Yes, its ammo capacity is small. But when you kill stuff in just 6 shots, there's really no shortage of clips on the floor once you enter the scene and start shooting. The full-auto thing is not going to happen. It has a pulse option, which means manually clicking to speed up the burst frequency. The description is also wrong in that it does not fire 5 round bursts. It's 3. Note: If only 5 rounds are left in clip, all bullets will be discharged.
I didn't notice the AI being problematic. Just focus on killing things as quick as possible to minimize chance of squadmates dying. If the fight is filled with rocket troops though, just have them stay out of sight - you do all the shooting and spam their powers.
The Geth Pulse Rifle has comparatively low damage as an assault rifle. Yes, it strips shields, but it takes far too many bullets to kill one guy. The rifle is great for Adepts/Engineers with Shield/Barrier problems, since it has high bonuses against those types of protection. Just bring along squaddies who can take down protection for you and shoot everything with a Vindicator/Avenger. Note: Geth/Avenger benefits from Hardened more while Heightened Rush is ideal for Vindicator.
