They straight up shoplifted the specs off of Aliens, from the 99 round clip to the under-slung grenade-launcher. While the the rounds aren't explosive, they're still massive kinetic beast that an punch through two inches of Titanium, which is enough to shred a human. Go Team Rico!

...Ok, since when are we talking Mk.III Moritas? The stats I gave were for the standard issue Mk.I
I would have loved some goddamn context in these discussions, because I never saw the Mk.III referenced anywhere before now.
Ok, the stats for the Mk.III are as follows...
Spec of Morita III
â—¾ Operation = Rotating breech electronic pulse action
â—¾ Caliber = 10mm x 50 caseless
â—¾ Cyclic = 900rpm
â—¾ Capacity = 95 - 99 rds
â—¾ Max Range = 1500m.
Grenade Launcher
â—¾ Operation = Gas operated, electronic primed
â—¾ Caliber = 30mm x 71 grenade
â—¾ Cyclic = 15 rpm
â—¾ Capacity = 4 x 1 rds
â—¾ Max Range = 180m.
It's closer to the M41A Pulse Rifle, much closer, but not enough, for it lacks the versatility that the M41A Pulse Rifle has. The customisability of the Pulse Rifle means that the Morita can still be outdone.
Actually looking though, the Morita's rounds are a little larger, but as you said, they lack the explosive tips, meaning that pack a heavier impact, but they lack the blast damage that the Pulse rounds have.
