This little bit of information is from the 2.6.0.1 patch notes.  Here's what it says about Crimson...
 [quote]Crimson
Damage changed to 19/30.5 base/precision (Previously 13.76/24.75)
Fixed an issue that was causing this weapon to deal higher flinch than intended[/quote]
Now look at this line.

What happened to that?  How come every time I get into a primary gun fight against a Crimson, my aim still gets knocked towards every other part of my view other than my target?  You might've saw my post that basically implied that I was really enjoying a Valakadyn recently.  That's true, until I come up against a Crimson.  I can't aim any gun at them when it shoots me.  You'll see a lot of Crimson in Rumble and Survival.  Unless you're using a special weapon or you're already in their face, you just get deleted.
By itself, the Crimson is pretty fair.  But once you put on a helmet with normal or Enhanced Hand Cannon Targeting, it turns primary fights into surprise attacks.
Is this a bug or was it not implemented correctly during that patch?  And what are you supposed to do to combat it?  'Use a special weapon' should not be the solution, especially since Crimson is just a primary and I'm trying to get my Luna's Howl kills in Survival done.

	I agree, can barely win gunfights against crimson with people who have hand cannon targeting it's really annoying.
