The Uzi meets the SMG needs. The MAG does everything the M60 does and is the coaxial on all MP vehicles anyway. The M79 is fielded instead of the HK69 and is necessary for the rocket grapnel in the mountaineering pack. The FN Minimi (SAW) or the Ultimax 100 fit for the Automatic rifle role.

When running the 3rd edition I dropped the Mac-10, the HK 69, the Stoner rifle and carbine. Like you I switched to M16, M16A1, M16A2, M4 variants for standard rifle/carbine issue. I replaced the M60 with Stoner M207 for the SAW/auto rifle roles because of common ammunition. I kept the Mag 58 as a heavy base of fire MG. M79's and M203 were the grenade launchers issued.
