What's the deal with Bolters?

They don't bolt! [rimshot]

Well, in the years since this was posted lots of material has been written detailing the function and styling of all kinds of 40k weapons.

For instance, the ubiquitous bolt fired from the venerable Bolter is actually a miniature single stage rocket with a "mass-reactive" warhead. Bolters are actually tiny rocket launchers.
