I, too, think that the way Autofire is written makes it less dangerous
than a high-caliber weapon fired by a skilled samurai who's smartlinked.
However, you *can* bring that appalling target number down through the
use of Recoil Modifiers: stocks, gas vents, etc. And fire smaller bursts--
ten rounds is a waste of ammo. Fire 6-round sprays, with a smartlink
and Gas Vent (4). *THEN* you're talking about something to fear. :)
