Sounds like an automatic rifle to me and the sound is echoing off the bulldogs.

No, it's still too slow. It's probably police semi-auto pistols returning fire

It's normal finger pull speed, probably a pistol. It's hard to tell if rifle or pistol with the echo because both make a crack from the shockwave of a supersonic projectile.
