Single Shot is the standard attack mode for most guns in Fallout, Fallout 2 and Fallout Tactics: Brotherhood of Steel. It costs one Action Point less than an Aimed Shot. Single Shot uses only a single round of ammunition.
A single shot gives no bonus to Critical Chance, and it gives no special damage effects. It is still possible, (though much less likely), to score a Critical Hit with a Single Shot. Any Critical Hit will be rolled on the torso critical hit table.
Notes[]
Most, if not all, automatic weapons will not fire in single shot. With the trait Fast Shot this will be the only option with non automatic weaponry.
