So I would agree, Base of one of weapons +1 per additional bullet from each gun. so 2 LMGs short bursted would do 6DV base +5DV burst.

Since there is no reason (except ammo saving) to shoot anything but a full burst from a drone, this will get pretty deadly. +19DV without any penalty is kinda ridiculous. Also what happens if you fire wide bursts?

Not really. Two bursts can be soaked twice.

Well there is still the issue that armor effectiveness is based on weapon damage unmodified by burst count. So hit a target with strong enough armor and all you get is a whole lot of sparks (tho someone wearing body armor is likely to be battered into overflow)...

True but the same happens with single barreled weapons
