The Heckler & Koch G11 fired a three round burst during a single recoil impulse.
However, this required caseless ammunition, which effectively doomed the project (especially given its timing, right when the Soviet empire was collapsing). Other efforts to increase hit rates historically include duplex or salvo ammunition, where multiple bullets are loaded in a single cartridge.
