Is this perk only invalid for fully-automatic weapons, or is it also invalid for semi-automatic weapons? Semi-automatic weapons are not explicitly mentioned in any perk, so I am not sure how they are handled.

For the purpose of perks, semi automatic weapons are basically single shot weapons (since they're not fully automatic and holding down fire only fires one shot).

This means that the Gunslinger perk for pistols and Rifleman perk for rifles apply.
