Weapons with fully automatic modes need to be carefully controlled, and can fire long bursts of ammunition which do effectively the same thing as a three-round burst (except consuming five rounds,) or they can be used as an area attack (more on this later.) Rate is a function of selection- Semiautomatics have a Rate of 3, those which can fire a three-round burst treat each burst as a single attack with +2 damage, and also have a Rate of 3. Larger weapons that need to be two-handed, such as assault rifles, carbines, and short shortguns are Speed5, and long-barreled weapons like full rifles are Speed 6.
The general rules are these, which should be good guidelines for statting out the weapon you want if the exact model isn't listed below: Weapons small enough to be one-handed, such as pistols and machine pistols, are generally Speed 4. Many firearms go beyond this with selector switches that allow them to choose multiple operating modes - from those with three-round burst capability, to those which can hose down an entire area with a constant stream of lead. There are exceptions - primarily bolt-action hunting rifles which are still popular for hunting animals - but in general this is the rule. This means that for each pull of the trigger, you get one round downrange. Most firearms these days are semiautomatic or better. Below one will find the rules for firearms in our world, but first let's explain the basics. Guns are here and they're here to stay, in no small part because the Exalted will love them as much as the rest of us. This certainly won't change just because people start glowing gold! Throughout the late history on Earth, the primary weapon of mankind has been metal devices that hurl chunks of smaller metal into other people at very high velocity.
