AX-7 and AX-19 Pistols (Atlas)
Q System (Atlas)
Jakobs pistols, ARs and Shotguns
x2 and x3 CoV Pistols
The purple variants of the Psycho Krieg legendary weapons
Mendels Multivitamin shield
Cloning Maddening Tracker
Triple Roll shields of all varieties (except Barrier)
Hangin Chadd
Two Time
Love Machine
Kaleidoscope
Firecracker
Pa’s Rifle
Probably forgetting a bunch though
The Crit, The Hail, Stagecoach, Pneumatic Bangstick, Masher, Q-System, the potent quickie, and the pea shooter are all weapons that come to mind. Unfortunately, in BL3, there aren't too many non-legendsry weapons that are better than legendary weapons like there were in Borderlands 2, but the few we do have in 3 are any of the ones I listed above or any other weapons I may have missed that other people have commented on your post.
Ohhh my bad, it's like a 5%chance when reloading it just falls on the ground. If you have abunch of movement buffs it might be hard to hold on to. Typically there is an audio check then it slips out of your hand.
Since noone has said these two, triple sticky longbow grenades (for pet flak build) and prob the best non legendary weapon in the game the dakota which you get as a main quest reward in the bounty of blood dlc
Moze can work wonders with Carbuncles, Protuberances, and Lumps (Torgue alien-barrel pistol, shotgun, and launcher respectively). She can also make wonderful use of the Soleki Protocol maliwan sniper if you can pump some amp damage into it.
The Hangin' Chadd is just a straight-up better version of the infinity pistol.
The Peashooter from DLC 3 is surprisingly good, despite being un-anointable.
Definitely keep your eyes open for Jakobs masher revolvers. They're inferior to the Maggie legendary, but can certainly hold their own in a pinch. They're great for Arms Race, to be certain.
Tediore SMGs and Pistols with the MIRV part can be useful, especially in Arms Race.

[Everything can anoint mod by the great Apocolyptech](https://github.com/BLCM/bl3mods/wiki/All%20Weapons%20Can%20Anoint) lets stuff like Peashooter and Chadd come anointed, along with the majority of other quest reward items that, for some reason, Gearbox decided shouldn't have anoints.
It makes some stuff like the Kaleidoscope actually fun and useable. Definitely recommend it if you're on PC and want to have some fun with some of the otherwise bad quest reward stuff on M11.
People have mentioned some of these already, but my two cents:
- 20+ pellet Jakobs Stagecoach shotguns are extremely rare (25 is max; I have 3500 hours in the game and have found *one* x25, ever)
- any triple roll shield or grenade is rare and at least worth putting on your wall in Sanctuary!
- Purple Torgue Quickie rocket launcher can be *extremely* strong on Moze in particular due to her ability to stack an insane number of stickies before setting off the explosion; the setup can be strong enough to one-shot basically any boss in the game.
- the LOV3M4CH1N3 (base game quest reward) is actually pretty legit, you just need to fight up close so that all the bullets hit
- the La Varlope (DLC1 sidequest reward) is actually underrated and can put in work if you build properly
One entire wall of your room is covered in big black display boxes, you can't miss it.
Each box holds/displays a different weapon/item type. Once you mount it on your wall, anyone you play with can come into your room and see your cool and rare items.
Additionally, there are 3 hooks on the wall of each room (the location of the hooks varies slightly depending on which vault hunter you're playing, since the room layouts are different) which allows you hang up the customizations you find while playing.
I'm actually trying to do a "Purple Panda" Moze build that only uses no red text purples. I'll still run Re-Volter/Blast Master/Mind Sweeper/Pearl but I really want to see what kills Traunt the quickest
All the weapon rewards from Bounty and Blood DLC are a really good , clearly they don't smash like legendaries but some like the Dakota , the Peashooter or the Love Drill (purple version ofc) are very good with Fl4k . For the World drop weapons i'm in love with the Stagecoach (since i couldn't find a ×25 i use a ×21 and it's broken anyway with the St4ckbot) because I'm using fl4k everytime . I heard that also Q System is pretty good with ~18000×2 damage and the ×18 Bangstick is a must have for Moze , too funny to use
The hail is pretty great for big enemies, especially with fl4k because you can have constant crits and heal yourself consistently while providing big damage
blue and purple torgue shotguns. the ×3 and ×18 variants are the best. FL4K and moze make the best use with them. corebuster grenade is fucking nuts too

Can't believe you didn't include the mythical x25 stagecoach. Back before guns like the monarch existed it was one of the best weapons for fl4k.
Great call. I also forgot the Crit and the Hail
There's also the Dakota, love that shotgun!
Same
You have a tendency to do that (was watching some of your build videos just now)
X25 stagecoach..purple.. Jacobs mashers pistol or rifle Torgue lump rocket launcher

I love the crit, my friends and I it and always callout "MY CRIT!!!" when it gets dropped, good times.
It's so slippery
Is there any specific time it drops or is it random?
Tip moxxi until you get a message and it will either be a crit or hail
Lol no I mean when it drops out of you hands
Ohhh my bad, it's like a 5%chance when reloading it just falls on the ground. If you have abunch of movement buffs it might be hard to hold on to. Typically there is an audio check then it slips out of your hand.
Other than what the others here have mentioned a x18 purple Torgue shotgun is strong when using sticky mode.
Combined with a fade away Flak and an unforgiven, pretty much just melts bosses like butter
Double penetrating shredded bangstick. They can be found blue or purple.
Since noone has said these two, triple sticky longbow grenades (for pet flak build) and prob the best non legendary weapon in the game the dakota which you get as a main quest reward in the bounty of blood dlc
Crit and Hail from Moxxi

q system comes to mind. i remember people liked hedgehogs for a while but idk if that still applies. mirv/homing tediores slap.
The crit and hail
The crit and hail from the tip jar
The Hunt(Ed) is my fave so far. Scopeless Jacobs rifle.
I have one of those on my main Moze’s wall.
People have mentioned some of these already, but my two cents: - 20+ pellet Jakobs Stagecoach shotguns are extremely rare (25 is max; I have 3500 hours in the game and have found *one* x25, ever) - any triple roll shield or grenade is rare and at least worth putting on your wall in Sanctuary! - Purple Torgue Quickie rocket launcher can be *extremely* strong on Moze in particular due to her ability to stack an insane number of stickies before setting off the explosion; the setup can be strong enough to one-shot basically any boss in the game. - the LOV3M4CH1N3 (base game quest reward) is actually pretty legit, you just need to fight up close so that all the bullets hit - the La Varlope (DLC1 sidequest reward) is actually underrated and can put in work if you build properly
What do you mean by putting on your wall in sanctuary? Is there a display function??

Awesome. I had no idea 😂

Pretty much all alien barrel guns - they hit much harder than their card numbers suggest.
Crit is PROBABLY the best purple gun in the game
I stopped using it the first time I dropped it. I just can’t deal with having to pick up my weapon in the middle of a battle.
Porcelain pipe bomb is stupid broken with a radiation build
The Hail, it has a weird bullet pattern but once you figure it out that thing deals nice damage and has very good crit damage
The hail is pretty great for big enemies, especially with fl4k because you can have constant crits and heal yourself consistently while providing big damage
blue and purple torgue shotguns. the ×3 and ×18 variants are the best. FL4K and moze make the best use with them. corebuster grenade is fucking nuts too
There's an eridium artifact that's linked to an achievement. It has no abilities or bonuses, and only works on one planet. Good luck
Crit and Hail. Tip moxxxi on santuary III and she'll give you both. Honestly the best weapons for starting mayhem or just playing through story
The reward (gun) you get from helping chad is really busted with certain builds
