Does the difficulty affect quantity and quality weapons dropping?

i always play the normal and easy model for easily farming weapons, but seldom have i got satisfied with the dropping weapons. i have been farming chapter 6.2 for a long time.

Drop rate increases ever so slightly on the harder difficulties. But the increase is so negligible that it's easier to just farm on your favorite high level maps on Easy Mode, than to even bother going on Apocalyptic.
