Hello Everyone

I am planning a campaign with rules mainly from GURPS Lite (for now).
Now I found some things, that are missing and I would like to have clarify, if that is indeed the case.
I am not talking about skills/advantages/equipment, but rules that look incomplete if I don't consider the basic rules.

Here are the things, that I am missing

Lite 16. Missile Weapon (DX/Varies); Flamethrower are listed without rules how to handle them.
Lite 19. RoF (Rate of Fire): Paragraph ends abrupt.
How to apply rapid fire (without rules for recoil)?
Lite 22. Pump Shotgun, RoF 2×9: Where is 2×9 explained?
How to handel Shotguns?

Are the rules missing in GURPS Lite?

I know that there are rules for this kind of stuff in the basic book

Basic 270. RoF (Rate of Fire)
Basic 271. Rcl (Recoil)
Basic 372. Rapid Fire
Basic 409. Shotguns and Multiple Projectiles
Basic 106. Jet

There is also nothing mentioned in the GURPS Lite errata: http://www.sjgames.com/errata/gurps/4e/lite.html
