So not sure if I am missing something with the OCC or not but since the Gun Master out of Rifts China 2 can not take individual WP's do they get something to give them some bonuses as they level similar to how the WP would have worked?

yes, Tao Jen Qiang under powers, abilities, and bonuses describe the level progression WP's

The only bonus to strike I see beyond level 1 is a +1 at level 10. Is that the only change they get for strike bonus?

In the write up the Gunmaster is stated that they have WPs in every firearm except missile launchers and heavy weapons.

It appears to have meant to be the modern weapons version of Moo Gi Gong, but left out the Modern WPs.

The is in the 1st level listings of bonuses to a disarming shot. It might be appropriate to use those for bonuses to aimed shots instead of for disarming.
Along with that...ignore the L10 bonus to strike.

Or

You can infer from the 2nd paragraph (labeled 'Weapons') that the char was meant to have all Pistol and Rifle WPs (excluding the listed exclusions) but for some reason they specific text was excluded form what was published.

the way I read it, is that the character effectively HAS all gun weapon proficiencies for everything except: heavy, and machineguns (which in rifts would be heavy, and heavy energy) so while it might be slightly "munchy" I would treat them as having the full range of rifle and pistol WP's as if they got them at first level.

so with that said the list (from ultimate edition) that they seem to effectively have is:
wp handgun
wp rifles
wp shotgun
wp submachinegun
wp harpoon and speargun is "iffy"
wp energy pistol
wp energy rifle

the ones they explicitly do not have is:
heavy military weapons
wp military flamethrowers
wp heavy Mega Damage weapons
