I'm curious; do some of the A-class mech chassis available for purchase have smaller hitboxes than others? Would it be advantageous to swap something like a 'zerker default body to a scout or tech? I suppose it wouldn't matter a whole lot for AoE weapons, but for sustained weapons like the SMC and AR, could some of the parts provide less mass to hit?

No. All A, B, and C classes have the same hitboxes, regardless of chassis.

It's to my knowledge that every class has their own set hitbox. You can test this out yourself by shooting around the outside of mechs and still have your shot registering.

This is often easier to observe through streams or video. I can think of a specific instance earlier today watching a streamer on SS. Though you could see the smoke trail go past the visible chassis, the hit still registered.
