Another thing that makes the idea of pickup only Sniper rifles a better idea than main class weapons is that as class weapons, the sniper rifles are embarasingly unreliable to kill target that do not stay still to pose for a headshot, resulting in lots of hitmarkers.
I would be 100% in support of sniper rifles being powerful pickup only weapon that could rip a hole at someones torso if they hit

Agree class sniper or specialist sniper are going to less effective so more hurts the team. Pickup can be limited and very effective.
