Snub-nose Repeating Blaster
Another type of weapon, something between a pulse pistol and a rifle. Its capacity is 100 shots/blasts (typically 3 "shots" per burst). It has two shooting settings: single, 3 shots per round, and semi-automatic, 2 bursts of 3 blasts. The weapon is similar to a submachine gun in shape and function. It can be held one handed like a pistol but has fast repeating fire like an Uzi. This weapon is seen used by Aeryn Sun's mother Xhalax Sun and Chiana. -- That is what we have on the wiki. Firstly the weapon keeps being talked about in terms of shots/blasts/bursts/rounds. This is way too convoluted, pick a terminology and stick with it. Furthermore, "It has two shooting settings: single, 3 shots per round, and semi-automatic, 2 bursts of 3 blasts." *Two* settings 1. single - 3 shots shots per round 2. semi-automatic - 2 bursts of 3 blasts I'm guessing is what is meant by "2" settings, but if so, semi-automatic is incorrect because that would be 1 shot and 1 automatically "chambered" or readied shot, semi-automatic will not fire multiple rounds, that is the realm of automatic or the subset, burst fire. So going off this what does the writer mean about "single" fire for the first setting? Do you mean semi-automatic, which could be wrong because of multiple shots, but it does use 1 "round."
