I didn't want to reduce the lifespan of my mouse by tenfold with every run attempt so I decided to tweak the pistol's normal held-down firing speed to more closely match what you could get by mashing the firing button*. I think this is close enough to the firing speed from mashing to not really be Little Joey's BOOFED UP PISTOL MOD but rather an acessibility and QoL thing.
