Gun nuts of the fediverse. Do any guns use two magazines at once? (piefed.social)

I hope folks read more than just the title. So im watching a show with a gun exchange and the person has to reload and you can see they are nervous to get the new magazine in so they can fire again and it made me think. Do any guns have two magazine where you can either manually switch to the other magazine or maybe automatically do it when the first one is empty. With the idea that if you need to fire while in the middle of changing out the empty magazine you could. I feel like this seem obvious enough that someone must have tried it. I mean considering the crazy gun things I have seen. Since im not aware of anything I figure if it has been done it had an issue or was just not useful enough to make worth it. So for the folks that are really into guns, especially wierd protoype ones. Has there every been anything like this?

I'm not there yet either lmao, also working on it!

I've just personally never been able to get used to the newer Walther's grips. The ppk is fun for the neat factor at the range (also I'm a nerd) but as far as a carry pistol goes none of their "duty" lineup does it for me (or, I can't do it with them lol. Either way.) CZ all day for me, trustworthy, good grip, can shoot well.

But that's all just personal preference anyway, fully agree on the rest though! Second to last thing I want is a gunfight, the last thing would be what the fighting is intended to prevent lmao.
