Grand Theft Auto: Advance
In Grand Theft Auto: Advance, the sprite for the pistol shows Mike holding two pistols, one in each hand, although other characters will wield only one pistol. Also, Mike shoots 2x faster than other characters with pistols because of dual.
Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars
In GTA Chinatown Wars, the player has the option of using either a single pistol or "Dual pistols", both set of weapons sharing the same ammunition, the latter effectively better in speed, damage, and magazine size. They can be bought from the Ammu-Nation website for $450.
