I think the original commentor is referring to the fact that shooting the weapon too fast makes the recoil disadvantageous, causing the shots to fly over your target.

This is more or less true, however as a secondary it's kind of expected, in my opinion...at least filling the role a typical revolver would.

For close range you should be able to just blam-blam-blam away. At longer ranges you can pace out your shots. The simple advantage that you have the ability to CHOOSE your fire rate can be an advantage in and of itself.

It could be so much worse; imagine if the fire rate were simply slower...at long range you'd have to shoot slow, at short range you'd have to shoot slow, and then it'd be an awkward weapon for close combat. As it is now it can fill any distance role perfectly fine.
