Just some things I was thinking of as I was perusing my SR books.

1) In SR3 rulebook, under the section that says Recoil on page 111, it gives as an example firing two 5-round full-auto bursts - but as far as I can tell, a full-auto burst is a Complex Action, and as such, only one can be done per Combat Phase.

2) Is there a way to pop up from behind cover, fire off two shots (from say, a SA pistol) and then duck back down? The only thing that seems to fit would be the movement rules, but this isn't really moving across a distance. I guess one could walk pass a corridor, fire twice and move to the other end. But I'm not sure how well this would work.

3) In the SR3 companion (page 78), the Street Cop is listed as having a Firearms skill of 4. This looks like a throwback to SR2 that wasn't changed. I assume that this is supposed to be a Pistol 4 skill. Also, the Gang Leader and a few other templates don't have any gear listed. I haven't seen any errata for these yet. (I noticed these last few as I was working on a random NPC template that runners tend to run into.)
