Pulsar?!
That gun's bullets are just slow, other people can and will dodge your bullets. Try an Alchemer.

Why not 3*
If you're using a 2* weapon in Pvp, then you're already at Tier 2 Level, why not talk about 3* weapons?
Personally for T2 PVP, I use KiloWatt Pulsar and Antigua (Both 3*)
Pulsar - Yes, the bullets are slow, but once the bullets expand they cover a lot of real estate. Plus knockback and a chance of shock. When it comes to my higher level gear, I love my alchemers (I have umbra driver and cryo driver) for PVE but I get frustrated using them in PVP (hitting someone with a charged umbra attack is pretty awesome, but it's very tough.) Where as my gigawatt pulsar in PVP is great for pushing people where I want them to go. (Just last night aimed a pulsar shot slightly to the left of two opponents, they dodged to the right... and right into the recon swordsman waiting to pounce. It was pretty sweet.)
Antigua - Fast firing, easy to hit someone while they're moving and I'm moving. Good finisher. I get a sword hit or two and the person starts to retreat, get those last few shot with the antigua.

I assume you mean T2, not
I assume you mean T2, not 2*.
For annoying bombers: Antigua
For being a sneaky bastard recon: Autogun line
For spamming hallways: Kilowatt Pulsar
For a striker who for some reason is carrying a gun: Magnus
For someone who wants to pretend that going gunner is actually effective in T2: Voltech or Shadowtech Mk II
For someone who wants to look like a newb and be a drag on their team: every other gun

autogun line...
autogun line is silly. You don't expect anyone stay in their position for far too long don't you?
most likely they can dodge while you are taking a stance to shoot. Even the bullets connect, I bet 70% of them missing since enemies can move sideways.

Sentenza
It was bound to have a use eventually :P
The thing about the bullets is they so fast and can't be dodged, whereas pulsar bullets can. Use a sentenza and (as has happened to me a few times) the target might not even know your killing them :P

Hmm
Random-Thing, OP's talking T2 here, not T3.

The kilowatt pulsar would be my go to gun if I were to do T2. (Polaris for T3 =)
Don't shoot all three shots as fast as you can as it is easily dodgable. Spread out the shots and have good placement and it can become a great harassment tool.

@Poopsie that's why I
@Poopsie that's why I suggested it for recon. Pop up on someone standing on a control point, and you should be able to unload quite a few of the bullets into them.

I meant 2*
I don't have the energy or the money to get anything 3* or above yet, so yeah…

Antigua...
I agree with Nicoya-Kitty's assessment of the guns. In particular, I'd recommend the antigua. I don't see them as often and the interrupt and range really throw people off. I personally carry a magnus, but I don't recommend it for most folks.

I wouldn't recommend anything
I wouldn't recommend anything in the autogun series for PvP because they just don't do enough damage due to the short period of invulnerability after a player takes damage. It makes all fast weapons lose damage potential. Antigua lines also suffer from this.
