Okay, point of order on this issue. Originally, Akjagara were semi-auto multishot pistols, with two pellets per shot, and you can clearly see two barrels on each gun. However, this had the side effect of using shotgun status chance logic, which many found undesirable. After the launch and subsequent reworking of the four-barreled Quartakk rifle, the concept of a new type of burst fire weapon was introduced, which feels like a semi-auto weapon with multishot, but behaves like a burst weapon mechanically. That is, all barrels fire at the same time with a single trigger pull, all consume ammo, and each procs status independently. Akjagara was later changed to use this new firing method, dramatically increasing its ammo consumption, but also allowing it to deal status effects more efficiently. Both pistols do not fire with each click, but rather each gun fires twice instantly.

Long story short, Akjagara and their Prime variant are double-barreled pistols, and mechanically they are burst-fire, with each gun firing two bullets instantly for each trigger pull (and using two ammo per shot), but NOT using multishot mechanics before mods. Put another way, they are instant burst, rather than sequential burst.
