That's certainly an interesting point. The way the rules are
written, it's as if there were a pause between action phases, during
which the character recovers from the recoil of the 10-round FA
burst he just fired. In truth, the guy's next action occurs
immediately after that burst, so it wouldn't be outlandish, IMO, for
some sort penalty to be applied based on the action(s) take in the
immediately preceding action phase.
