Not really. Of course you can run with SAW or similar light machine guns, the marines in iraq do that every day. There's hardly any difference in speed compared to running with assault rifle because the weight difference between saw and m4 is like some kilos. The weight of the other gear (backpack, vest, helmet) and marine's personal endurance matter more. When it comes to running with either saw, pistol or assault rifle the thing that matters is how fast you're ready to fire accurately when you stop running. In fonline there is no factor relating to this and so miniguns are the ultimate weapons, they are used like assault rifles.
Another factor is how long you can keep your gun fixated at a direction. That's why light machine guns got bipods or tripods so that they can be placed on ground, shot while prone or supported by a wall or table but turning the gun from that position over 90 degrees is difficult. In fonline your character can stand having his gun ready to shoot forever.

Cooldowns for, erm, shooting? Are you guys serious or just drunk?

It makes sense. Which one you manage to turn faster in a direction of your choice: a pen or an iron bar?
But all the same, the distance benefits/penalties can be anything. For example pistol could cost 2 aps less to shoot from 10 hexes or less because it's faster to aim. Whatever but the reaction time or accuracy modifier just seemed most logical.
TuX:
Sure you can run with a SAW or m60 but imagine the effectivnes of fire while running. If you want to fire a BG like the minigun or a rocket launcher you have to stand still. And can you imagine walking inside a tight corridor with a minigun?
Parowooz:
Wow, seriously. If you want realism add food system not the fucking combat nerfs.
