I think that once the armory guns are broken out, it's rarely worth using anything other than the riot shotguns, for exactly the reason stated - a single hit landed means a very long stun, and you can then finish off/capture your opponent at your leisure. Even if you wanted to kill your opponent, it's easier finishing them off from a shotgun stun than taking them down with a phaser from a distance. I can think of very few situations where smoke launchers help, but I don't think 'clearing up big messes' is one - it would simply add to the confusion. Also I don't believe QM is capable of ordering lasers anymore, only phasers.
More gunfights out in the open would be neat, but whoever enters the armory first has a massive firepower advantage and can easily snowball their way up to unstoppability. You can see this with wizards, who can loot the armory within the first ten seconds of the round and quickly obliterate any resistance from then on.
