Edit: somehow it slipped out of my mind. Found it.

Is this also true if you have Gunslinger and can use the weapon one handed just by virtue of a very high Strength, ST 24 in this case?

Yes, it is. If the gun has the little "two-handed" symbol by it, Gunslingers get half Acc (with single-shots) for free, or full Acc if they Aim for a turn. It's the weapon itself that matters, not how you wield it.

Yep. "Full Acc, all the time" is expressly for purpose-built pistols, which are designed as extensions of your hand and not kludged to kinda fit in one hand.
