What we did to balance the power of this skill was the following:

When a character is using two weapons (firearms) they use the level
to decrease the recoil. Example: Simon the ork has an ambidexterity
skill of 3 and is fond of beginning a melee with a double blast of
twin double-barrelled sawed-off shotguns. The skill of 3 will drop
the total recoil modifiers by 3. Aside from the ability to use both
hands equally well, this is the only advantage of having the skill.

I'll show this post to my GM to make sure it's correct and post any corrections
if needed.
