Description

When using raise weapon the feature that allows you to raise your weapon and lower it simply by pressing or releasing a button seems to conflict with right click or aiming down your scope.

I had unbound "toggle raise weapon" in favor of only using "raise weapon" for more maneuverability while gunning and running or even suppression. If you right click to look down sights or iron sights you become locked in as you have no way to lower your weapon with toggle raise unbound.

It's trivial really as you can still use toggle effectively to lower,In theory this should be easy to get used too but in dayz combat can be rare and in the heat of the moment this can become deadly.

Adding raise/lower weapon function would fix this so that you can simply press the raise weapon key bind again to unlock or lower your weapon from the raised position.

this would allow players to use raise weapon or toggle raise weapon exclusively if they wish, and free's up the space bar for another key bind.
I imagine this would help left handed players such as my self quite a bit, I think the controls do need some condensing.

I too have problems with raise weapon conflicting with right click to iron sight, got me killed once, I got confused if I should press the raise weapon button or right click and it messed up my combat.

This seems to happen randomly, this did not happen to me last night when i had a scope on my rifle.
