I dual wielded once, in Normal. Since then, I have not once found two Hand Crossbows of remotely the same DPS. In fact, I have rarely seen more than one in any given item tier. Definitely a cool option stylisticly, but the randomness of drops makes it pretty impractical (unless you can use the Auction House). That said, I would not drop my shield for a second weapon or quiver as I doubt I could survive Inferno without its protection.
May the wind pick up your heels and your sword strike true.
