Snake it is not semantics at all.

When discussing the subject of close quarters marksmanship (CQM), the Special Forces, Ranger, and conventional Army Advanced Urban Combat Manuals break shooting engagements into 4 types.

1. Slow aimed Fire
2. Controlled Pairs
3. Double taps
4. Hammers

Each of these has a specific meaning and are catagorized by the time between shots, the recoil manipulation envolved, reaquisition of the aiming point/sights, and the accuracy of the follow up shot.

These are engagement definitions NOT semantics.
