Dual Mags


 * For the similar attachment in Call of Duty: World at War and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, see Extended Mags.

The Dual Mag is a weapon attachment which appears in Call of Duty: Black Ops.

Overview
The attachment decreases the time needed for every other reload action by using two magazines taped together. Every odd reload (e.g. first, third, fifth, and so forth) is faster. The following reload will be the default, original reload. It also increases the amount of ammo the player can have for the weapon, making scavenger unnecessary when running on low killstreaks.

The attachment costs.

Trivia

 * The M14 and the G11 are the only assault rifles in the game that do not have the Dual Mag attachment. However, the M14 already has a reasonably fast reload time, rendering this attachment less of a necessity (The G11 has one of the slowest reloads though, its magazine being inserted through the front of the gun).
 * The Galil, AK74u, RPK and AK47 all have the same reload animations with the Dual Mag attachment. This is due to their similarly shaped magazines.
 * Dual Mags increase amount of ammo the player would originally have by 50% (i.e. Galil starts with 140 rounds without scavenger, with dual mags, the player start with 210 rounds) In most scenarios this negates the need of Scavenger, allowing one to free up that slot for another tier 1 perk.
 * Since it also speeds up reload times, it also reduces the need for Sleight of Hand . Because of this, it is a strong attachment choice as it opens up two perk slots to other perks such as Flak Jacket and Hardened to maximize killing power.
