Burst mode (firearm)

In automatic firearms, burst mode or burst fire is a firing mode enabling the shooter to fire a predetermined number of rounds (usually 2, 3, or 4) at a time with a single pull of the trigger—this firing mode is commonly used in submachine guns, assault rifles and carbines. Other types of firearms, such as machine pistols (e.g. the Beretta 93R) may also have a burst mode.
