L-3 Nozzlenose

The L-3 Nozzlenose is a main weapon in Splatoon and Splatoon 2. It is the light version of the Nozzlenose. Unlike most other shooters, pressing automatically fires three shots at a time. While all three shots within a burst are fired very fast, firing another burst takes slightly more time. Four hits are needed to splat an enemy, meaning that at least two bursts need to be fired at an enemy to accomplish this.

Trivia

 * The Nozzlenose family of weapons are visually designed after garden hose reels. This is also reflected in their names in some other languages. They also somewhat resemble revolvers.
 * The L in the name means "light", referring that this weapon is the lighter version of the Nozzlenose weapons, not to be confused with being a light-class weapon.
 * This is supported by the French and both Spanish translations of the weapon.
