This was inspired by the movie Equilibrium. In the badass gunfight at the end, Preston reloads his pistols by using little machines mounted on his wrists. I would say that they make reloading pistols a free action.

Seems really the only time saved is that you can load two pistols simultaneously.

Neither example showed the person involved taking much less time than it normally does to smartlink-eject a clip and slap in a fresh one.
