Forum:How to tell the Damage of a Gun

Hi, I was curious, as I am having a hard time understanding the damage rating in this game. The shotguns will constantly have the damage system of: 26 x11 or along those lines. I can understand that for the shotguns seeing as how you have multiple bb's doing 26 damage. Now, I got a revolver that says 36 x7 and an smg that says 24 x4. I would like to know, does it mean that you multiply the numbers together to find the total damage, or some of the bullets fired will do x4 damage? Also, I got a shotgun that shoots rockets and it says its damage is 102 (pretty weak for a shotty) but it the stats is says +393% damage, does that mean I should add it too the 102, or what does it mean? Thanks and sorry for my ignorance!
