Burst=4
BurstDelay2=6 ; six frames between the third shot and the fourth

The value is the reload delay the firing object is given once its third shot of a burst has gone off, in game frames. -1 asks for a random three to five frames instead, and the assignment is reached only on a weapon whose Burst is above 3; at a burst of exactly three the third shot is the last one and pays ROF.

The gap is taken as written, without the house rate-of-fire bias, the random padding or the veteran rate-of-fire ability that the burst’s closing ROF is subject to. Burst covers how the shots of a burst are counted and which weapons ignore the short gap altogether.
