I've cleaned everything up, and reinstalled with the usual bag of tricks, but same problem. Anyone else have this problem and know a fix ?

To put it in perspective, about 5-10% of Support players used the Ganz.
Now I would say ATLEAST 50% of Support players use the Ganz.
This is assuming they have the Ganz, and they do not have the clark. Strictly LMG vs Ganz.
The LMG's are support weapons not assault rifles.

Hey Merlin,
Is that a "support slut" that I see firing a Clark in your signature? You might wish to rethink your terminology since it casts aspersions on an entire class. All classes have their place and are useful. Right now I find less support people than any other class played so I find your comments unsupported. Maybe in the past that was not the case but we are currently in 1.25 and things have changed.

Yeah I know you generally see less support guys ATM, but what im fearing is once DICE make the changes to LMG's there will be loads of players taking the LMG just so they get an accurate weapon with loads of bullets that can out shoot snipers & run around like rambo!!!
Anyone remeber the M60 from BFV? Even worse than the PKM from BF2. Different games exactly the same problem

Now hitting something specific might be a different matter

As for the 2nd one, I'm curious to see the public's opinion, since they were oh-so-vocal about the LMGs after the last patch. Is the change: Better? Enough? Too much?
- The up/down and left/right recoil were doubled in 1.25. In 1.40 the left/right recoil was changed back to pre-1.25 numbers, but the up/down recoil is still twice what it used to be. This causes excesive recoil in the upward direction after a long burst of fire. Since the LMGs need long bursts of fire to become accurate, the excessive up/down recoil is still a detriment to accurate suppressive fire. LMGs are supposed to be able to support the riflemen on the move, hence the reason why they are light. If you need to go prone to shoot accurately, then the Gantz is more appropriate (especially when defending static positions). Please change the up/down recoil variables to their original values. There is no reason for this change in the first place.
On the positive side, the changes made to the Clark shotgun and SCAR-11 are long overdue and welcome. The Clark is now a more effective CQB weapon, the rapid follow-up shots makes it a weapon to be feared by the assault class at close range. The SCAR-11 recoil reduction and increase in accuracy during burst fire put this weapon on equal footing when going against the Voss or Krylov.
