It was not a 21-gun salute, those are given to honor the President Of The United States on certain occasions. It was a 3 volley honor which is traditional at military and police funerals, though it most often involves 7 rifles firing three volleys.
A 21-gun salute would involve 1 gun firing 21 times. A quick google will confirm this. These honors are actually codified in the US Code.
