1) You will still have +30 to recovery/reload speed. Therefore, you can equip one best melee weapon and one best ranged weapon and use them faster. 2) You can get one free round as you don't have a recovery time with a pistol and a blunderbuss. 3) You can use a round to finish distant enemies. 4) If you use a push attack, you can reload and shoot while the target is away instead of spending time on running to your target.
