I know how it is, your in the heat of battle and all you can think of is jamming the fire trigger as hard as you can so you can get the lead out. Don't take that the wrong way, because it's true for most people that don't exactly want to die, it's an instinct. However, not only does it not help, but in at least one case, it makes things worse. When you are using the needler and you jam the trigger, you shoot only a little fast. On the other hand, if you only press the trigger far enough for the gun to shoot, you will find needles flying through the room twice as fast. Just as an added note, if you are jamming the trigger and you want to release it enough to shoot faster, i think you have to let go completely then try again, but I'm not sure.
