Weapon stats are FAKE

[Hybernian]

For example:
Light's V9S (pistol with a silencer), Heavy's M60 & Lewis Gun (machine guns) and Medium's AKM have all exactly the same stats in terms of "Damage" and "Fire rate".
But V9S kills the training dummy in 8 shots, Lewis Gun - in 10, M60 - in 12 and AKM - in 13.

The pistol've always felt like it deals a lot of damage, but looking at the stats, I thought: "well, weird, but maybe it's just its greater accuracy", but no, it's not.
Also, based on stats, Flamethrower is supposed to be this DPS monster, but it takes about 4 secs to destroy a dummy compared to Lewis Gun's ~1,8-2 secs.
Idk, maybe the dummy just doesn't burn, but I doubt that's the case or reason. If this was really the case, the burn damage is still not nearly enough to ensure even matching Lewis' DPS, let alone surpass it.
In actual combat it also doesn't feel like much.

Why do they lie?

training range for some reason is not 1 to 1 with the normal game, some guns and utility act different in there. Also yeah the stats on the weapon page are not accurate but that is true for pretty much every shooter

Like what?
Also, V9S still deals 35 per shot compared to Lewis' 25 per shot.
