Thoughts on dual wielding SAA's?

For cosplay it's fun to be stupid. In real life it gets you killed

Revolver Ocelot.

About as dumb as duel-wielding any kind of handgun.

Pretty good.

Dual-wielding the greatest handgun ever made? Genius!

Unless you're Ocelot it's stupid.

A slightly better idea might carrying two and pulling out the second one after emptying number one.

And in that case you could just use a pistol with proper magazines.

Wrong

Revolvers are cooler.

That was a popular tactic in the days before cartridge pistols. Blackbeard was known to carry half a dozen flintlocks on himself when doing boarding operations, and I feel like some legendary Wild West figure kept two 1851 Navy revolvers on hand, swapping them out after one was empty.

Civil War cavalry men would carry as many revolvers as they could get their hands on. I've seen a portrait of one officer with at least four revolvers on his person.

You can't exactly reload a cap and ball revolver in the heat of combat

What about duel wielding machine pistols in a banzai charge?

That legendary "Wild West" firgure was James Butler "Wild Bill" Hickok.

He would also shoot and reload his 1851 Colt Navies every morning because he knew that the temperature falling through the night left a possibility of condensation in the chambers, making the powder damp.

I see it being useful at very short range to a either very well trained or on the opposite panicked operator, when number of stopping shots before clic! is more important than theorical accuracy.

Like ef I was engaging accross a street I don't even care if it's a lever action, but around a corner in my house I would happily dive/rush and cylinder-dump dual .357 in the average direction of the door.

It lets you have TWELVE SHOTS

Dual-wield shooting is by and large useless, there's only a handful of people who've every pulled it off. This guy was one of them

And suddenly my pants are gone.
