If he wants to fire the weapons himself then make him split his firearms/
combat pool dice and add a +2 TN per weapon. This isn't quite standard
rules but it seems fair.

If he tells the drone to fire for him then don't forget that just asking
is a simple action. But once done the drone can keep firing itself useing
just autopilot dice. This isn't as bad as it sounds as the rigger can
instruct the drone to lay covering fire with the 2 LMG's while he
concentrates on getting the important taser shot in.
