Sort of. Just possessing the firearm would be one charge, and another charge by discharging the firearm (assuming it is in violation of a statute). But discharging the firearm several times will more than likely increase the punishment. This depends on what he shot at and your state law. There is absolutely no way to know what someones punishment will be, there are just too many factors.
