Recoilless
Is it really recoilless? Based on the preview video, it doesn't look like it. Maybe make note of this? As a trivia perhaps? —

- "Nothing is recoilless." - Everyone (Everywhere, anytime). :P Grizzlei ♥ ツ
- That's part of the gun's name so...why not??
Watched the video, its recoilless; the gun automatically opens a port so the user can reload it, its not discharging encasement shells.--Kells [Comm|Files] 23:20, 8 August 2012 (EDT)- Uh, nope. There's a lot of recoil after the Spartan fired a round. Recoilless rifles normally eliminate or reduce recoil; this weapon, however, does not show that.— DESTINY 23:27, 8 August 2012 (EDT)
