The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Unlike single-shot firearms, which can only hold and fire a single round of ammunition, a repeating firearm can store multiple cartridges inside a magazine, a cylinder, or a belt, and uses a moving action to manipulate each cartridge into and out of the battery position.
- This allows the weapon to be discharged repeatedly in relatively quick succession, before manually reloading the ammunition is needed.
- Typically the term "repeaters" refers to the more ubiquitous single-barreled variants.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Repeating firearm article was read about 34,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 80 and blocks with 80: each hit it takes is cut by 32 %.
