Repeater
Lever, then a thought
Short answer
A lever-action people like on stream. Slow is not safe. It is just slow.

How it works
The repeater is a named civilian gun. Cycling is a rhythm. Panic makes it a club.
What to do
Learn the cycle in a field, not a stairwell.
Don't
Don't take it to a military gate as a bit.
