[WW] Tapping other Feats

["richard spangle" <lost_rich@hotmail.com>]

please forgive my disagreement here, but i do not know if i would make this 
"skill" a game feat, worthy of expendure of such a valuable resource as feat 
points.  in my humble experiences (qualifying expert with a 1911, USArmy ROK 
'86) such a "snap shot" combination can be done by someone with a good eye 
and a little strength to control the recoil. Warrior Academy range we were 
taught to "snap" one to two round into any target within 15 to 20 feet, 
depending on exposure. now i was not a block, actually, i was something of a 
wimp back then, but had a quick hand (and i'd been firing .44-4 cap & ball 
remington revolver since i was about 8) and a good "gut".  IMHO, i believe 
this should more be a "shot option/penality" element. say, a character with 
a STR & DEX > 12 (each) incures a -2 on each roll. characters with STR or 
DEX < 12 cannot attempt the second shot.  flame mail?
