The entire design is not very mechanically sound. The way the robot lifts when the shots go off show that the structure points they attached the gun to are too rigid. Guns don’t shoot well under a tight grip or welded one. If they have to use a rigid design then it would make more sense to put the gun on the side of the robot and counter weight the opposite side for recoil balance.
I'm sure more elegant solutions are already in fabrication. In addition to mechanical stability, they're also not going to let a resistance pluck a weapon humans are able to use from a disabled land drone.
