So, I was thinking of what kind of character I would play should I ever have a chance to play and not run a Pathfinder game (I have never played in a Pathfinder game, though I run two). I thought, "Hmm... I want to play an alchemist, an alchemist dwarf. What if he were an alchemist working in Alkenstar. He'd have a complete distrust for something as unreliable as magic. Next to no enchanted equipment...[...]"
Anyways, to spare you my ramblings, I've come up with an idea for my Dwarven Alchemsist, a patriot of Alkenstar. He has (prepares for groans) firearms. Perhaps he made them himself in Alkenstar or perhaps he bought them. Regardless, I am having a hard as heck time coming up with a decent set of feats for this guy. I'm pretty sure his early feats will involve Armor Prof. (Medium) and Exotic Weapon Prof (firearms), but other than that, I'm kind of lost. Do you wonderful people have any ideas? I've looked at gunslinger from the Campaign Setting, but don't know if it fits with his flavor. He'll have a rifle, revolver, and either a blunderbuss or scattergun (I don't know whether I like one handed or two handed better yet). I'm thinking he'll use the rifle for picking people off from a distance until they are in bomb range. Then, the "shotgun" will be for those who are just too close for comfort (read: melee) and the revolver will be 99% for show and/or a backup for when the bombs run dry. He'll also probably be middle-aged.
That said, do you all have any ideas on feats?

Well obviously Point Blank Shot and Precise Shot are a must.
Improved Initiative would be useful. Probably want to keep a melee weapon about for back up and poisons.
Maybe the Master Craftsman feat?
I had not even thought of the Master Craftsman Feat!
I did think of using a warhammar(dwarven racial proficiency) for backup melee and also as his "repair tool"
Oh, and I grant you +3 internets for 1) responding nd 2) bringing a feat I hadn't even thought of to my attention.

Wayfinder #2 (Now available for FREE download!) has a Gunslinger PrC and, I think, a feat or two.
I haven't looked at the feats yet, but I did look at the PrC. It's pretty cool. However, I'm still looking at going all 20 with alchemist. Were I ever to make a fighter though... or a ranger...
