Are jump infantry relentless still ie Assault marines so they can rapid fire their bolt pistols and still assault?

Bolt pistols aren't Rapid Fire... And never were.

Unless I'm on drugs?

I think 3rd edition let you double tap pistols.
6th edition, no.

And no, jump troops are not relentless. If they were, all my BA assault squads would have 2x plasma guns.

Pistols are 'gunslinger' though. If you are armed with two of them both of them may be fired.

Is there a page number for that? because the weapons section states you can only fire one gun in the shooting phase.

52 or 53 from memory. Under the rules for a pistol.

Thanks!

In 4th if you stood still you could fire pistols twice.

As noted - JET packs are relentless, from memory, but JUMP infantry are not

thanks for the help and @rigeld2 I hope you aren't on drugs it can be some heavy stuff
