So, we all know the Commando. A Missile-/Laser-Boat with four hardpoints, high speed and a small size. With the current variants we have all combinations of these hardpoints (excluding a full missile variant, but who would want 4 missiles and no lasers on a 25 ton 'Mech?). However I did some research and found the Commando-1C. This Commando exchanged the missile racks in its center torso with a single AC/2 and one ton of ammunition.
In MWO I could imagine this variant having two Ballistic hardpoints in the center torso and two energy hardpoints in the right arm. This would be a configuration similar to the 1D, which is the 1C's successor.
I've also constructed a stock loadout:

Head: 12/18
Right Arm: 12/16; Medium Laser
Right Torso: 12/18 6/12; STD Heatsink x2
Center Torso: 16/24 8/16; STD 150; AC/2
Left Torso: 12/18 6/12; STD Heatsink x2; AC/2 Ammo
Left Arm: 12/16
Right Leg: 16/24
Left Leg: 16/24

Structure: Standard
Armor: Standard
Heatsink: Single

Possible Quirks could be:
Ballistic Weapon Range: +20%
Ballistic Weapon Velocity: +10%
Energy Weapon Cooldown: -10%
Energy Weapon Duration: -7,5%
Additional Structure L/R Arm: +8
Additional Structure L/R Leg: +12

This Commando could, fully build out, serve as a a fast Direct Fire Support, or a very fast Flanker, I could imagine some pretty interesting builds.
Thanks for reading, have a great day!
