I've been trying to figure out the recoil of a Panther Cannon in Shadowrun 4.

According to the write up it has massive recoil and according to the rules Assault Cannons have x2 recoil and the Panther Cannon has a RC of (1). But...

The Panther Cannon only fires single shots, so they have NO recoil. So why even give them Recoil Compensation in their stats?

Or am I missing some rule from another part of the book? Because the write-up of the gun, does not match the stats or the rules.

Can anyone help?
