"Shoot" function not being called

Hello,

I have a gun script. There is a function that is not being called, even though I am calling the method. Here is my code:

using System.Collections;
using UnityEngine;

public class Gun : MonoBehaviour {

public int clipAmmo = 30;
private int ammo;
public int playerAmmo = 270;
public float rateOfFire = 1;
bool canFire = true;
public bool isFullyAutomatic = true;

void Start () {
    ammo = clipAmmo;
}

void Update () {
	if (isFullyAutomatic)
    {
        if (Input.GetButton("Fire1"))
        {
            if (canFire)
            {
                canFire = false;
                Shoot();
            }
        }
    }
}

IEnumerator Shoot()
{
    Debug.Log("PEW");
    yield return new WaitForSeconds(rateOfFire);
    canFire = true;
}

}

Why is it not being called?

Because you can’t just call an IEnumerator like that, use StartCoroutine(Shoot()).
