Bug Description: If you have two SMGs or two gyro whatevers, you can fire one, switch hands, and instantly fire the other, two shoot both at the same time.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Begin firing with one, onehanded weapon.
2. Switch hands.
3. Fire with the other, onehanded weapon.
You can abuse two onehanded weapons to fire both weapons at the same time

I don't see how this is a bug, one handed guns are kind of meant to give you an off hand to hold whatever, even another gun.

I think the buggy part here is that the firing delay of the first weapon isn't accounted for in the second weapon.
What I'd have expected to happen would be for you to be unable to fire the second weapon until you are able to fire the first one again.
I'm not sure the ability to double your DPS instantly is an intended feature so I submitted it here, but it seems I might have to submit it as a suggestion instead if it is.

Re: You can abuse two onehanded weapons to fire both weapons at the same time
The most use you're going to get out of this is with revolvers and gyro'd shotguns -- revolvers are laughable in real combat, SMG AP rounds aren't much to write home about themselves, and even in the most min-maxed rounds you're only going to have 3 people running around with dual shotties. I suppose in theory you could use it for faster shooting with two gyro'd m41as, but I have to wonder what kind of rounds per second increase you're actually getting for that kind of hassle.
Probably the best argument against 2 gyro'd shotguns is "how are you pumping those without a free hand", but otherwise it seems reasonable to be able to fire two weapons at once, especially when it comes to the revolver and SMG.

If there was a delay from firing the first weapon it would be worthless
Also mind you that the only worthy combo is M41A Rifle dual gyro, dual smgs are good until you face elite T2's and T3's of any size or form or stage
