Dual guns vs Singles

Here I am with yet another silly gun question

Is there any difference in combat between dual and single weapons that have the same base damage/range?

I have been assuming no, and that you merely need duals for certain special abilities. But I've made bad assumptions before, hehe.

Anyone have a definitive answer to this?

I believe dual handguns fire faster, but hit for less damage each time, while single handguns hit harder with each hit, but fire less frequently.

Ahh, thanks Zud!

I guess i haven't noticed whether the re-use timers are all that way for dual vs singles. Will have to check it out.
