Dual MTX

The **Dual MTX** are a pair of pistols in Critical Ops.

## Description

Like the P250, the Dual MTX has moderate statistics, but its differences are its high recoil control, fire rate and movement, which can be ideal in medium-far range combat. Out of all pistols, it has the longest reload, due to the player holding two weapons.

It is a popular choice for the pistol round since it has decent penetration stats and moderate damage, enough to kill players who bought the kevlar in the pistol round instead.

Dual MTX is cheap for only $800 and is effective in medium-range encounters making it an effective anti-eco weapon. However it doesn't have great range effectiveness and users of this weapon can be countered by other longer-ranged pistols, particularly the GSR 1911 and the MR 96. This weapon will be rendered ineffective in rounds 2-25 (unless it is an eco round or a team switch) since it will be outmatched by assault rifles and as such, this weapon should never be abused and isn't a very effective backup weapon.

This weapon should be exchanged for the P250 in later rounds since the P250 has a faster deploy time and faster reload time and a better effective range.

* Its high penetration is useful for taking down opponents when high penetration weapons are inaccessible.
* It is an effective spray-and-pray weapon due to its rather large magazine for a pistol.

* This weapon is most effective in pistol rounds and as an anti-eco weapon.
* Consider switching to the knife from time to time as this weapon is heavy for its class type.

### Countertactics

* Beware of players using this in pistol rounds, a good way to counter them is to use pistols with great range effectiveness such as the GSR 1911 and the MR 96.

* Forcing the player to reload this weapon is a good counter as the weapon has a very slow reload time.
