I went for a half way point in stats between temple stats and DC stats, and minus the DC's power weapons they came down to around the DC's per-model points.
The other equipment/mod rules will need a while to crank out. and the two temples would be another whole dev thread. These assassins are meant to be all your various types of non-regular mercenary/officio assassins or just really good killers that fit the profile of "assassin" they can be psycopaths, mercs, outlaws, and some of the "smaller" cults and temples [all of which th officio and th inquisition recruit from]
They aren't "THE BEST" as the 4 or 6 major temples, so have less stats, but they are obviously going to be experienced killers and would be slightly better than DC

UPDATE:
Guns (this is a small DIY within a larger one, you can configure your gun as below; note that due to the nature of these guns, they are customized to achieve their statline, so unlike some of the guns available (plasma, hell, las, bolt) these aren't mass produced, which means the exact same statline might not cost the same amount of points. Represents the completely custom-built-and-catered exotic nature of the weapons) [note that there will be a separate DIY for grenades]:
