I have some questions for you.
Fist off, what books/pdfs can you use in making this gunslinger?
Do you know if you GM will use the high strength as RC bonus optional rule?
Also I would recomend that you download chummer from here http://www.dndjunkie.com/dev/chummer/Chummer.zip (http://www.dndjunkie.com/dev/chummer/Chummer.zip)
It's a really handy program when you are making your character.

I only have pdfs for main book, aresenal,Augmentation,unwired and street magic

Ouch, you really need Runner's Companion. It has a lot of good stuff.

With your current gear, there's no reason to take the firearms-skillgroup. If you at some point want to shoot rifles,okay, but so far, you're better of using these 40 points on buying Pistols 5, Automatics 5 (if you want to be equally able with both) or something like this.
You also can get rid of Dodge, as Acrobatics in your Athletics-skillgroup covers that.
Perhaps you could look into some more points out of negative qualities, to raise your attributes, Body 5 and Strength 5 aren't particularly strong/tough for a troll (and both are quite important, for damage resistance and encumbrance/ for recoil-compensation (if your GM allows that).
Your Pilot-skill btw covers all groundcraft, motorbike would be a specialization!
As you still got money, take a look at the armor-section in the arsenal, especially FFBA.
Does your GM allow Geas on adept's powers? You also should try to get the Way of the Adept-book, as it has some really good options for adepts.
For more inspiration take a look at UmaroVI's Gunslinger http://forums.shadowrun4.com/index.php?topic=4495.0 (http://forums.shadowrun4.com/index.php?topic=4495.0)

kk I'll make some changes and think about the rest. Keep the ideas coming please. Thanks everyone.

Fist of I'll just let you know that I'm as big a newbie when it comes to Shadowrun as you Marak but I'll try to help you out.
Attributes (200)
Body: 8 Agility: 5 Reaction: 5 (7) Strength: 8
Charisma: 2 Intuition: 3 Logic: 3 Willpower: 4
Edge: 6 Magic: 6( 2 ) Essence: 6
Fist off, unless I'm missing something, you have spent 245 BPs on your attributes so unless your GM has okay-ed that you will have to fix that.
You don't have any Logic linked skills so maybe you should bump it down to a 2 or raise it and pick up some Logic linked skills. (Armory would be helpful with the Attunment metamagic if you think you'll pick it up.) Now agility is a important attribute but maxing it out is really pricey, it costs an extra 15. You might want to think about lowering it or picking another Metatype. If you want to play a Troll, a bit of clumsiness is a part of the package.
You have maxed out both Magic and Edge which is costs you 130 BP, I would lower them both to 5 maybe settle with a Edge of 4 for a BP cost of 90-100. That's really all I have to say about your attributes.
Qualities
Adept (5 BP), Ambidextrous (5BP), Astral Chameleon (5 BP)
Mild addiction to Caff-Pow (+5 BP), Allergy - Silver(Uncommon), Moderate (10)
If you can then you really should add more negative qualities for some sweet BPs, I recommend Incompetent for skills that you will never use, t.ex Archery.
Now on to the positive side of things ;) I would recommend that you take a look at the Martial arts (page 156-200 of Arsenal). Firefight could really help you out if you ever get stuck in a fistfight. If you just take 5 BPs worth of martial arts you would be able to pick up the martial arts manuver Iaijutsu so you can quick draw all your weapons. (Martial arts are optional rules so clear this with you Gm first.)
Active Skills (64)
Athletics Skill group 3
Etiquette (Street) 2(+2)
Automatics
(Automatics Improved ability) 4 (6)
Pistols 3
Perception (Visual) 3 (+2)
Pilot : ground 2
Stealth skill Group 2
Unarmed 2
From what I understand a rule of thumb for creating characters in Shadowrun is that you want to have at least 4 in all the skills you want to be good at so free up some BPs and buff the skills you want to be really good at. So now I have to ask are you really going to use both Pistols and Automatics? I would pick one and excel at that.
I'll say somethings about your gear later today.
-
A) Magic/Resonanance doesnt count towards your 200bp for stats, but if youve spent 245, you've maxed something at chargen. Dont do that.
B) if you took Incompetent (Archery) or Incompetent (Palming) at my table, so help me every third run would involved you and Robin Hood trying to see who can shoot the wings off more flies while stealing all of the underwear in the Ork Underground

My one and only shadowrun char has a Automatic Dice Poll of 14. (without smartgun) Bring It On! :P
But you make a good point, know your DM and make sure not to agro him.

Yep. Lik eKarmagen :)
and some Lifestyle and Contacts expansion
But basicaly, with those 5 corebooks you are good to create almost anything you want.
Also, Combat sense is great, IMO you think about using Gymnastic dodge, snce you have athletic group. Note that it is impossible to use it while driving the vehicle (while Dodge works in that situation) Well that depends on how much time your character spents "in saddle"
Edge 6 is looot way more that I would evfer think about, but it can be great, I have player with charater like that in my group...
Don`t waste your BPs on pistols. Everything that could be done with those can be done with SMG, which is Automatics. You also have Assault Rifles in that.

I said good stuff. :P You pointed out possibly the second worst thing in the book in your first line. The worst being Priority generation.

While Incompetent (Archery) is a tad cheesy if you clearly are never going to use a bow, I will have to disagree with Incompetent (Palming). Since you use palming to help hide items from sight, that's really handy for trying to smuggle firearms into a bar or when searched. That comes up often enough to be worth the 5 points.
I second Umaro's Gunslinger (https://docs.google.com/document/d/1FtD-p3YhRoczHXMV0Dgqy19KeweeTvDrwVdzDtsngWQ/edit?hl=en_US&authkey=CK2incEP) for ideas.
I have you at 546 BP which is way over 400BP. My breakdown: Attributes: 235 Special Attributes: 130 Race: 40 Skills: 120 Resources: 15 Contacts: 6.
My suggestion is to lower your STR and Body by 1. I'll soft agility to 4 as well. After that, lower edge and magic to 5. This will save you 95BP. You have 51 BP more to lose. My suggestion is pick up 20 more points of disadvantages and remove pistols for 32 saved. I'm not sure where you want to cut the remaining 19 BP. I'll cut Edge myself down to 1 until I could figure out if I could afford it.
Edit- As for Runner's Companion, it's my third least favorite SR book. It's got a lot of flaws all over. However, the qualities section is good and the custom lifestyle system is quite excellent especially if you ignore the more abusive lifestyle qualities (hint: if a lifestyle option gives you a dice pool bonus, it's likely too good).
-
While Incompetent (Archery) is a tad cheesy if you clearly are never going to use a bow,
I have no idea what you're speaking about. >_>
-
Well I guess it would really depend on the campaign. I mean, I guess Incompetent (Archery) could be worth the points if you're playing in the NAN and you're commonly ridiculed/openly mocked for your inability to draw back a bowstring without launching the arrow at a 90 degree angle into the nearest horses ass.
I'd probably nix it as a GM though in most campaigns.
-

To be fair, it isn't as bad as Incompetent (Skill that you can't default on and never plan on buying). Then again you generally can fill out on negative qualities that don't hurt you at all or are just mild inconveniences at worst.

Like Reduced Sense (Smell; Partial; Neurological). -10 BP and you take -2 to sniffing things.

What about Reduced Sense (Taste; Complete)?
-
Smell is largely more pointless, because Olfactory Sensor exists.

Agility is super duper important to you as a Gunslinger. Strength is not. I would really recommend Strength 5, Agility 4, Intuition 4.
You can do notably better with armor. For one thing, armor doesn't stack like that; you can't wear both a leather jacket and an armor vest (or rather you can, but you only benefit from the armor vest). The way SR armor works is that you wear Form Fitting Body Armor (Arsenal), one "big" armor piece like a Longcoat or Vashon Island Steampunk or whatnot, and then accessorize like mad with things like SecureTech PPP Systems, Moonsilver Line Scarf, Helmets, etc. Your goal should be to hit 14/14 for encumbrance which is Form-Fitting plus anoterh 11/13. One way to hit that is FFBA, full Vashon Island, and all of PPP except the helmet.
Why do you have Magic 5(1)? I don't see any ware.
Your Physical Condition should be 12, not 10.
Guts is a cool, but not really useful quality, as is Astral Chameleon. They aren't terrible but you may want to cut them for other stuff you want more.
Magic Resistance is 10/level, not 5/level.
I would go for another 10-point negative quality.
Your skills are way too all-over-the-place. In particular, you just aren't very good at Mechanics and I would reconsider the 30 points you spend on that.
Starting with Automatics 6 is a good idea.
Try to avoid skills at 3. It is very inefficient for improving with karma later. Generally, you should have either 0,1, or 4 in a skill. The reason is that buying a skill from 1-> 2 is 4 BP or 4 karma, but buying from 3->4 is 4 BP or 8 karma. Thus, it's more efficient to start specialized and diversify later.
Cool Resolve is very bad. It's half the price of Kinesics and way less than half as good. If you care, get Kinesics.
Blind-Fighting seems good, and is almost a good power, but is actually crap. The reason is that it only reduces the Full Darkness penalty from -6 to -4. You are a troll; you have Thermographic Vision. In full darkness you have only -3, so Blind-Fighting does jack.
I would drop both Cool Resolve and Blind-Fighting for Improved Physical Attribute (Agility).
You can do better on the guns front. What you probably want to be doing is dual-wielding SMGs, and use your Ambidexterity to do one burst as a simple action and then a second burst with the other gun as your second simple action, in order to keep recoil manageable. This lets you use High Velocity weapons (see Arsenal) without needing crazy cyberware. I would suggest something along the lines of the following:
2 Ingram SuperMachs with Stick-n-Shock
2 Ares Executive Protectors with Ex-ex
2 Ares Crusaders
2 Ares Alpha
This gives you options for tasing people (supermachs), murder and/or inobvious weapons (executive protector), concealable (crusader), and long-range (alpha; note you take -1 while dual-wielding them). Mod them with HV (except for the Supermach, which is already HV), slap on Gas-Vents and a bit of recoil-compensating mods to get them up to 5 RC, and you are good to go. You should probably get Chameleon Coating on the crusaders.

I meant the full Vashon Island, not just the overcoat. In order to get full use out of your high body, you want to wear as much armor as you can without hitting encumbrance penalties.
You should mod your weapons (other than the supermachs, which are fine as-is) a bit more, by adding on HV and more recoil compensation. This is probably something you can live with waiting to do until later, though, since it does get pricey and you don't exactly have tons of stuff to spend money on as an unaugmented adept.
I think you're using the old values for the price of some adept powers. Improved Reflexes 1 is 1.5, not 2, and Improved Physical Attribute is .75, not 1.
