Problem about reloading
I have played in the world for around 40 hrs, was doing all good, recently(today when I start playing) i got into a problem that i cannot reload any gun that need a magazine. I couldn't do anything with a gun like that,anytime I hit R, my character just raise up the gun like im surrendering, same thing happen if i try to right click and eject the mag or press X.
When I raise up the gun("surrendering"), i couldn't even shoot, I have to sprint to change(from raising to aiming)
Anyone has any idea what is going on?
PS: I could reload any shotgun or revolver without any problem. Restarted game, restarted server, doesn't seem working.

Do you have any mods enabled on the save?

No, pressing X doesn't work neither.

I can't remember which mod exactly but any that add items can clash with Brita's gun mod. I know the G.E.A.R mods do, may be worth disabling some to try fix it I've had the problem a few times

I'm just going to ask this seemingly stupid question simply because you haven't mentioned it. Do you actually have the magazine the guns need? If yes, have you loaded bullets into them?

For example, Picked up a m14, i do have the 308 bullet and mag, I press R, or I did the right click and insert the mag, my character will just surrender and raise up the gun.

I had only the Brita, The arsenal 26, and the Mod Option, which those three requires each other to work. I didnt put any other mods....

I guess the mod is not working for me then... I might just have to switch any other weapon mods...Any realistic firearm mods suggestion?

Hey,

Here are some possible solutions under the assumptions (Fresh mod, uninstall all 3, exit game, install all 3 mods and load up the mods and game and see if same error occurs),

1.) If the above does not work then Brita's/Arsenal's has a keybind to refresh the weapon's script, equip the weapon of issue and use the keybind to refresh the weapon.

2.) Make sure you actually have the magazine loaded. Magazines don't magically fill with bullets like in COD etc, you hold R to pull up a Radial menu and the bottom right most arc will have a reload magazine with respective ammo IF you have the respective ammo (can't load shotgun shells into a 308 magazine.

3.) The gun may be bugged, I've had instances where a bolt rifle required a magazine but could alternate load, check Brita's/Arsenal's keybind for alternate loading

4.) Lastly, do you receive a LUA error when attempting to shoot/reload/or even picking the weapon up? If so, redirect your issue to Brita/Aresenal so they may assist you.

it's special features of Arsenal 26
m14, mosin, revolvers, sks and etc, weapons that have fixed magazines can reload like shotguns. the problem is - it's not worked with radial menu of reload for first time, if you turn this off, reload properly, and try to turn on.
go to mod's page and read more, there are many features and hotkeys you should to know

It's a very late reply, but in my experience, I remember that this happened when I changed the gun to a melee attack and tried to reload.

Check your keybinds and swap from melee to ranged or check if you have the right ammo equipped
