I think this is a case of you suffering form more typos in the
hardback.
The first round does not count for recoil if (and only if) you are
firing in semiautomatic fire mode. There are about two errors in the
master table of recoil modifiers in the Hardback version, and even my
softback is not totally correct (corrected 3rd printing). Burst fire
and full auto pick up recoil for EVERY bullet fired.

even the errata from the GM screen has errors but you can work out
what FASA meant to say.
