Ammo lost with 2 SMGs

just-cause-2

In Just Cause 2, My one handed weapons of choice are 2 6-star SMGs. I use one SMG, but when I run out of ammo with it, the other one is empty as well. Does it take ammo from my other SMG, or is the ammo from the other one just disappearing? If it takes ammo from it, does that mean I have twice as much ammo for 1 SMG? I've also heard that the Happy Bubble Blaster uses SMG ammo. If it does, would that be able to be used as an ammo carrier (similar to the second SMG)?

They have seperate clips, but take ammo from the same source.

Say you have 240 SMG ammo, and you have 40 additional shots in both SMG one and SMG two.

You can fire SMG one 40 times(SMG has 30 capacity and increases by 2 every level), then you reload and your original 240 SMG ammo is reduced to 200.

After firing SMG one 40 times and reloading, SMG two has the same amount in it's clip, but you have less SMG ammo.

Effictively, dual wielding doubles your DPS(Damage Per Second), ammo consumption and increases your max ammo by just 40.
