The way you put it is a really strong question of Point Of View of the setting to relate different weapons systems or platforms.

But, as Sir_Pudding, Anthony and Pursuivant put it on their posts, its more something that already exists in the system, like Wepon Bond or Familiarity Modifiers, than something that only apply to the specific role of immediate action.

Maybe, I would use the Quality bonus (+1 for Fine Reliable/ +2 for Very Fine Reliable) for Immediate Action role, as well.

EDIT: From Brazil? Cool. I'm living in Rio de Janeiro.
That's fine, it's a good decision.

The reason why I said what I said is: ok, TODAY those adjusts could very well apply a Weapon Bond or a Fine or Very Fine Quality.

But what if tomorrow something comes even BETTER? A gun even more ergonomic, almost sensual to the touch.

Do you see where Im coming from?

Today's news are tomorrow's junk.

Also, nice to have some brazilian fellows here, what a pleasure! Im from Santos/SP. Nice to meet you.
