Dual Pistols

The Dual Pistols are a Pistol in Fortnite: Battle Royale. They were added in Season 4. The version of the Dual Pistols are the Hop Rock Dualies.
==Functionality==
The Dual Pistols perform differently to other pistols, in that the player uses two of them at the same time, working as a 2 round burst. The guns are actually fully automatic and the single press of the fire button will fire both weapons together.

The Dual Pistols are hitscan weapons. They do not have First Shot Accuracy enabled, and will always fire a random spread of bullets, which reset after each burst. This spread is decreased whilst crouching.

== Strategy Guide ==
*The Dual Pistols are best used in close-to-medium ranged encounters.
*The Dual Pistols are best paired with a high-damage shotgun. Fire the shotgun, then swap to the Dual Pistols to finish off your opponent.
*Avoid using Dual Pistols at long ranges because of their poor accuracy over great distances.
*Since the Dual Pistols fire in two-round bursts, be mindful of their capacity. While they have a capacity of 18, they can only fire nine bursts before reloading.
*The Dual Pistols are generally unsuited for destroying structures due to their limited capacity.
*Landing back-to-back headshots with the Dual Pistols can deal well over 100+ damage in a single burst, making them more effective than most SMGs if you're accurate with them.
