'''No Time To Explain''' is an [[Exotic]] {{icon|Kinetic}} [[Pulse Rifle]] introduced in ''[[The Taken King]]'', which ties directly to a secret hidden quest featuring the Heroic version of the [[Paradox]] mission. It is also featured in ''[[Destiny 2]]'' with the release of ''[[Beyond Light]]'', in which players who pre-ordered the expansion will receive the weapon and its [[Exotic Catalyst]] at release. It can be directly acquired after completing the main [[Story]] campaign.
'''No Time To Explain''' is an [[Exotic]] upgraded version of the [[The Stranger's Rifle]]. It is a slow-firing pulse rifle that looks very similar to the weapon given after completion of the base campaign in ''[[Destiny]]''. The gun's signature perk makes it so that precision shots return to the magazine, allowing for near-infinite firing if used on an enemy with a large precision hitbox and the recoil can be controlled effectively.<ref name= "PD20">[http://planetdestiny.com/20-reasons-taken-king/ '''Planet Destiny''': 20+ New Reasons to be Excited for TTK]</ref> It returned in ''[[Destiny 2]]''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s ''[[Beyond Light]]'' expansion.

===Gameplay===
The main perk is Rewind Again: precision shots will return to the magazine. This only counts for individual rounds in a burst that are precision hits, so tight control is needed to maximize this perk. The weapon can also fire in full auto. In another update, the intrinsic perk Headseeker is also added, in which body shots increase precision damage for a short time.

===Acquisition and Gameplay===
In its ''Destiny 2'' incarnation, No Time To Explain continues to refund precision shots, but will also refund shots against enemies affected by the new [[Stasis]] element. Landing 10 precision/slowed/frozen shots produces a "personal protection portal", which behaves similarly to the Arc Souls that can be created by [[Stormcaller]] [[Warlock]]s, and can even be used simultaneously with an Arc Soul. In the quest required to obtain No Time To Explain, it is stated that the weapon was initially designed to combat Vex, although it is just as efficient against all enemies. The exotic catalyst increases the rate of fire of the portal.<ref>'''Bungie.net''': [https://www.bungie.net/7/en/Destiny/BeyondLight/Gear?ciid=48001 ''Weapons & Gear'']</ref>
*Those who pre-ordered the Standard Edition of ''Beyond Light'' with the ''[[Season of the Hunt]]'' pass or the Deluxe Edition received No Time To Explain and its [[Exotic Catalyst]] once the expansion launched. Deluxe Edition owners will are also given be given the [[Weapon Ornament|No Time To Explain ornament]].
 
*The weapon can now be acquired in-game by any owner of ''Beyond Light'', after completing the [[Story|Campaign]].
====Perks====
*Intrinsic: '''Rewind Again''' - Precision shots and shots against combatants slowed or frozen by Stasis will return to the magazine.
*'''[[lightgg:1840239774|Fluted Barrel]]''': Ultra-light barrel.
**Greatly increases handling speed.
**Slightly increases stability.
*'''[[lightgg:3142289711|Accurized Rounds]]''': This weapon can fire longer distances.
**Increases range.
*Exotic Trait: '''Time-Slip''' - At 10 stacks of Rewind Again, a small portal will open, shooting bullets from an alternate timeline version of this weapon. Precision hits extend the portal's duration.
*'''[[lightgg:2779035018|Feeding Frenzy]]''': Each rapid kill with this weapon progressively increases reload speed for a short time.
