I think its meant to be like the "chamber" bullet

same way you jam "other" things

One is in the chamber upon a non empty reload, great detail and mechanic

Strange that other magazine-fed weapons - AR and Stingray - do not have this mechanic.

Or do they? Wasn't paying too much attention to it.

I'm pretty sure it's a pistol thing. (Actually I'm not, I know nothing about guns. But hey. Hope it helped!)

Some of the pistols just work that way. Some don't such as the Red 9. Realistically you might reload your weapon when it's not empty, topping up the ammo, but one bullet is in the chamber alongside the full clip in the magazine. And realistically if you emptied a gun and heard it click then there isn't one in the chamber. But since it's a computer game, even if you've emptied the gun completely and reload, it also loads one in the chamber, otherwise the player would get into the habit of reloading twice in a row to get the extra bullet. Realistically when you reload before it's empty then you don't have to slide back to load the first bullet into the chamber since there's already one in there, but I'm sure the reload animation is the same regardless because it's a computer game. Doing so, I believe, would simply spit out an unused bullet onto the ground, like when someone disarms somebody in a movie and then pulls back the slider over and over until it's empty.

AR is basically a M4 rifle, and Stingray is a H&K SL8 rifle. Both function the same way concerning the firing sequence, as in one bullet is loaded into the chamber before you actually fire it. There are various videos on YT that show the insides and how every detail works, so look them up if you're interested.

My brain does not compute. But I really do appreciate your explanation kind stranger!

But it sure would be very interesting if the Stingray had this benefit. RE4 restricted this to handguns only unfortunately.

(Maybe we'll leave it to the modding community as always.)

"Dazzled, are you? Our craftsmanship demands no less."

That's a lotta stress, by the way. I'd recommend visiting the nearest Tavern or Abbey as soon as possible. Wouldn't want you getting one of those nasty Afflictions.

Any firearm that uses a mag to feed the ammo can have an extra bullet in it's chamber.
