Have all these thing been defined?
Just because one power has a later number on 
the issue rifle does not prove/infer higher tech.,
it could be the same rifle concept issued X years
later by the other power.   
It is also not necessarly true that 'all' units 
have the later issue weapon.
What it really comes down to is: what do you want
to be happening in your sector of the universe?
