Why? Extra Attack is 25 points while DWA (Pistol) is a realistic technique by RAW. Even if you want to dual wield SMGs in a realistic game, I think that you get better results from buying an extra four levels of Guns and just sucking up the penalty because it is only 16 points versus 25 points. Now, if you want to kick or grapple in the same turn as firing a pistol or SMG, I can see it being worthwhile for the cool factor, but I think the guy who bought an extra four levels of Guns is probably better off in the long run.
