👉 A serial weapon, also known as a multi-bladed or multi-pointed weapon, is a type of firearm or ammunition designed to fire multiple rounds simultaneously or in rapid succession from a single barrel. These weapons typically have a mechanism that allows for the rapid ejection of multiple projectiles, often through a rotating or sliding action. This design is intended to increase the rate of fire, making them particularly useful in combat scenarios where quick, sustained attacks are necessary. Examples include some types of machine guns and certain specialized rifles like the M16's detachable magazines, which can be configured to fire multiple rounds in quick succession. However, the term "serial weapon" is not universally applied and can vary in definition depending on context.
