No, you can't hip-mount a fifty caliber weapon and fire it on full auto. The problem was that the 'smart' guns used thermal imaging to track their targets and guide the bullets in for a kill, whereas the xenomorph is at ambient temperature.
Their rifles tore the SHIT out of the aliens when they weren't being ambushed after turning in their clips. Of course, by then, there were only four Marines left. Poor intel kills more people than the enemy alone could ever accomplish.
I like the USAS-12 though, automatic shotgun with a drum clip is always nice for interior pest removal.
