It's clearly a good gun designed for massive hordes of enemies instead of a single big tank. I think it's just like MetallicArcher said, I also came up with that headcanon.

Remember how Weiss apparently has a scar but the aura should be able to heal those wounds and leave no scar? Also, she is the only character who has bled despite the aura is supposed to be a shield to prevent fatal wounds and she got wounded with a single punch while others like Ruby, Yang, Blake and Jaune took damage from a explosives, blades, guns and Grimms. So why couldn't she protect herself? Jaune is still an aura beginner and even he could prevent damage so I thought aura automatically protects you from damage and if Weiss has trained herself so hard to master her semblance, then she should be able to have a good control over her aura. So why couldn she?

My theory is that aura and its abilities depend on each person. Some people like Jaune can heal themselves, others like Weiss can control it to master spells and Ren & Pyrrha can project it outside as a force to increase damage and defense.
