    To hold and fire two [guns], one in each hand. Most often seen with handguns, or [compact] sub-machine guns.

    However, Dual-Fisting is the term (created by the Halo community) that
    is the most popular and widely accepted.

      To [dual-wield](gun in each hand) firearms. Most common with handguns and Submachine guns but not limited to.
      P.S. [Dual-wield] is more proper than [dual-fist]. [Dual-fist] has its own fucked-up description.

            to hold [2 pistols], one in each hand. A common image is arms extended, face focused and [scrunched], blazing off wildly, NOT shooting both pistols at the same time but alternating each time. Also the shooter can wear a [trench coat] thats flailing in the wind. Sunglasses are okay too.
