I think I disagree with two of your assertions in that sentence. First I disagree that a penalty on consecutive rounds of firing wouldn't be a good model (that's what's you're saying right?). Second, it seems to me that it would be fix.

An off the cuff house rule for Rcl
Rcl works as normal such that each multiple of Rcl your Margin of Success accounts for means another shot hit the target after the first one at MoS 0, and up to the RoF. If the weapon is fired on the following round, subtract Rcl from the skill as a penalty to model continuous fire without recovering. Otherwise, the character firing the weapon can use a ready action to recover and reset the penalty.
