Lone Tenno was wrong, it wouldn't be a 6-Shot. Primed Ammo Stock and Burdened Magazine would theoretically give +170% so: 2 * 2.7 = 5.4 which would be rounded to 5 by the game. Though I suppose you could get 6 or more now using a Riven.

However, pulling 1 damage mod for Primed Ammo Stock would give a relatively small damage decrease while bringing the mag size up to 4. I guess it would be a small dip in burst DPS, with Tigris's duplex being an almost instantaneous release of the entire mag, but the sustained would be way up.

The fire X reload cycle for 4 shots would go from 2 shots-reload-2 shots-reload TO 2 shots-2 shots-reload. The first would take ~5s while the second would take ~3.5s, the first would average 1 shot every 1.25s while the second would average 1 shot every 0.875s. That means the second would fire ~1.43 shots for every shot fired by the first, which means the second would have to have ~30% less damage per shot for the first to have higher DPS.

I'm pretty sure 1 damage mod isn't going to come close to costing you 30% of your damage.
