I can't fully understand, but the text is about repeat-firing and auto-loading. There is also mention of cooling system. Speculating on these, the Misaka's natural ability might require too much concentration and physical movements. The gun may thus provide a higher rate of fire, easier aiming, a larger ammunition capacity, and specialized projectiles. The equipment quite possibly relies on her for the energy, thus cannot be used by anyone else.
Many real world tools perform similar functions, such as bows. While one can throw an arrow by hand, the bow can enhance the performance many folds.
