You can gain Improved Critical multiple times. The effects do not stack. Each time you take the feat, it applies to a new type of weapon. This effect doesn't stack with any other effect that expands the threat range of a weapon (such as the keen edge spell). A fighter may select Improved Critical as one of his fighter bonus feats.
