That's a good point I hadn't considered before. Thanks!

Another thing I just thought of is that the advantage of two double actions
comes from the fact that there are Edges to negate the penalties for using
them in such a fashion.  Perhaps the same thing could be done for automatics
and fanning.


New Edge:

Steady Hand	3/5

You know how to ride the recoil of multiple shots better than most.  With
the first level of this Edge, your penalties for burst fire are reduced by
half.  With the second level, you take no penalties at all when using burst
fire.  These bonuses also apply when you are fanning a single action weapon.


What do you think, sirs?
