PC with two guns, lets for arguement sake say two Steyr TMP's, one in each hand with the Ambidextrous quality.

Per the rules on suppression fire (P. 144) "Suppressive fire is treated as a wide burst, but for simplicity we assume that the wide burst and recoil modifiers cancel out."

Could then a person with dual Steyr's choose to fire both weapons as Suppressive on an area, and essentially "suppress it 2x as effective"?

i.e. a person entering the area would have to make two checks to avoid the suppression fire?
