Weapons that add burst-fire capability (The battle rifle conversion, rapid blowback, and autofire mechanism) do increase the Burst parameter of the gun, but doesn’t allow the weapon to be switched to burst mode.

I got around this by adding the BURST flag to all weapons (It’ll still shoot a single-shot burst if unmodified), but surely there’s a more elegant solution.

on it, should be a simple tweak to the gun mod switching code to check mods for a burst flag…
