As for the bolt pistol, it really doesn't need charge between each shot -and- fire delay added on. A mechanic I'd prefer to see is having the charge front-loaded with no fire delay. Essentially, the weapon passively charges itself up whether the trigger is held down or not. When the gauge reaches maximum, it can be fired once, then the gauge will zero out and it will fill up again for another 0.4 seconds, then it can be fired again.
So whilst running around your bolt pistol is at full charge, then when you have an engagement...
*fire* --> 0.4 second charge time --> *fire* --> 0.4 second charge time --> *fire* --> 0.4 second charge time, etc.
As a precision weapon, I don't think the bolt pistol needs the handicap that the charge time gives it.
Regarding the bolt pistol, it all depends on whether or not the gun is capable of holding the pre-fire charge indefinitely. Seems to me that the design of the bolt pistol dictates that it cannot hold the charge. The assault forge gun has a similar mechanic so it's not unheard of. I don't think you can say that there is a standard mechanic of all guns that means the projectiles fire immediately. There are physical mechanics involved.

You know it's bad when people start comparing AV weapons with high-precision pistols.
They're both guns dude, they both have firing mechanics, which is what I was comparing. I don't see how what I'm aiming at or what the gun's primary design is has to do with it.
Instead of a one-line rebuttal, perhaps you could enlighten me (and possibly others)? Maybe I would learn something ;-)
