Yeah, giving everyone a free +3 at short ranges may be a problem. Though it is an Acc bonus, not a skill bonus, so it only applies to Aimed shots, which are less common in close quarters combat.

I just can't see any way to justify it providing a clear bonus to shots at longer ranges and nothing to shots at closer ranges. If it was structured so that it gradually phased in over distance to make sure adjusted skill monotonically decreased as range increased, something could work in that direction...
