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 on) is faster. The following reload will be the default, original reload. The odd reload depicts the player removing the spent magazine, and flipping it around (either on screen or off screen), and inserting the second, fresh magazine.

With the exception of the <a data-rte-meta="%7B%22type%22%3A%22internal%22%2C%22text%22%3A%22RPK%22%2C%22link%22%3A%22RPK%22%2C%22wasblank%22%3Atrue%2C%22noforce%22%3Atrue%2C%22wikitext%22%3A%22%5B%5BRPK%5D%5D%22%7D" data-rte-instance="3125-7932853894e09435b92bd1" href="/wiki/RPK" title="RPK">RPK</a>, the attachment also adds 50% more ammo when the player spawns. For example, the <a data-rte-meta="%7B%22type%22%3A%22internal%22%2C%22text%22%3A%22FAMAS%22%2C%22link%22%3A%22FAMAS%22%2C%22wasblank%22%3Atrue%2C%22noforce%22%3Atrue%2C%22wikitext%22%3A%22%5B%5BFAMAS%5D%5D%22%7D" data-rte-instance="3125-7932853894e09435b92bd1" href="/wiki/FAMAS" title="FAMAS">FAMAS</a> starts with 90 reserve rounds normally, but with dual mags it starts with 150 reserve rounds.

Since it speeds up reload times and provides more ammo, it reduces the need for <a data-rte-meta="%7B%22type%22%3A%22internal%22%2C%22text%22%3A%22Sleight%20of%20Hand%22%2C%22link%22%3A%22Sleight%20of%20Hand%22%2C%22wasblank%22%3Atrue%2C%22noforce%22%3Atrue%2C%22wikitext%22%3A%22%5B%5BSleight%20of%20Hand%5D%5D%22%7D" data-rte-instance="3125-7932853894e09435b92bd1" href="/wiki/Sleight_of_Hand" title="Sleight of Hand">Sleight of Hand</a> and <a data-rte-meta="%7B%22type%22%3A%22internal%22%2C%22text%22%3A%22Scavenger%22%2C%22link%22%3A%22Scavenger%22%2C%22wasblank%22%3Atrue%2C%22noforce%22%3Atrue%2C%22wikitext%22%3A%22%5B%5BScavenger%5D%5D%22%7D" data-rte-instance="3125-7932853894e09435b92bd1" href="/wiki/Scavenger" title="Scavenger">Scavenger</a> (however, using either or both perks can increase the immediate usefulness of this attachment). However, it should be noted that Dual Mags used with Scavenger Pro does not grant extra ammunition, so it has little use if used with Scavenger Pro.

Trivia

On the Wii version, there is a glitch where either the "Dual mags" or normal reload is done multiple times in a row. However, this only happens if the player reload cancels. If the player reload cancels on every reload, this can essentially give the player a free <a data-rte-meta="%7B%22type%22%3A%22internal%22%2C%22text%22%3A%22Sleight%20of%20Hand%22%2C%22link%22%3A%22Sleight%20of%20Hand%22%2C%22wasblank%22%3Atrue%2C%22noforce%22%3Atrue%2C%22wikitext%22%3A%22%5B%5BSleight%20of%20Hand%5D%5D%22%7D" data-rte-instance="3125-7932853894e09435b92bd1" href="/wiki/Sleight_of_Hand" title="Sleight of Hand">Sleight of Hand</a>, freeing up a Tier 2 perk.
