edit : why are rifles allowed to carry double bars again please dont bring the false paper tank argument
One thing to keep in mind is that an lmg42 does more damage than 2 bars at max range. Even if it was the same at that range it would still be superior due to the fact that it is a single source of damage, which means it bursts down one entity after the other. 2 bars more often than not spread their damage across 2 entities of another squad thereby reducing the other squad's dps output at less than half the rate as the lmg42 does.
Of course bars are more potent at close to medium range though. If you're trying to say that they are for their investment (120 mu, 15 fuel, 150 mp) still too effective at close to medium range, then your argument should not concern the fact that there are two. The bar as a single upgrade is arguably too expensive to how it performs. The only distance at which it will outperform (as a single upgrade, for the same cost as an lmg42, ignoring the unlock costs) is between 0-10. What makes the bar work for its premium cost is the fact it can be double equipped later in the game, when rifles should no longer face just grens.
Now if the double upgrade ought to be abolished then the performance of the bar needs to be elevated to perform for its cost which in turn will again prompt issues with units like REs and rangers.
As an upgrade I find the bar to be on of the better upgrades, not performance wise but gameplay wise, version of a lmg like weapon as its damage does not practically peak at max range, which turns so many other upgrades into a-move upgrades. There could be something to be said that it might be too good at close or long range, but you need to be more accurate in what you mean.
