There has to be a pecking order to weapons or else why have more than one in the game in the first place?
And to answer the question "why have any gun that's only an 'early-game' gun," that's easy. It's to have more useless crap diluting the loot pool and making worthwhile weapons and attachments even harder to find. Rewarding hardcore looters and the lucky. Not sure that's such a bad thing.
@reconzeroWeapon strength in apex isn’t balanced by the weapon type for most all guns in the game though, it’s balanced by tiered attachments. That way you can use the guns you enjoy playing most with there still being a tier system to their strength throughout the game. Given this fact, there is no point to tiering the weapons themselves, or else that’s just bad game balance. Each weapon should have its niche function. Mozambique is a shotgun with the quick handling of a pistol. R-301 is a well-rounded assault rifle useful in many situations. 30-30 is fast mid-range poking weapon that can double as a sniper when pacing shots. If a gun doesn’t have its niche then the game is out of balance. As such, that is the case for the P2020. It has no effective use compared to every other gun you’ll find on drop, or throughout the rest of the game. That’s why I argue to give it more function by making it stand out as a reliable sidearm like it would be in other shooter games. Read my above replies for further explanation
