If you shoot a M4 or KA-M or AKSU etc. and reload the magazine for quick reloading (holding the green triangle) and after that try to load the bullets in the magazine that was removed from the weapon (pick up the magazine in hands and hold the green triangle), the bullets will not be inserted into the magazine. If after this you exit the server and return to the server again, then the weapon becomes unusable and the magazine is no longer removed from the weapon, and the weapon does not shoot. The only thing you can do with a weapon after that is throw it away.

Event Timeline
Bohemia please fix this bug!!!
I have already lost so many weapons this way, it demotivates me and other players to continue playing.
This has been happening for two patches in a row 1.04 and 1.05. If the problem is not fixed in the near future, many of my friends will throw the game in the trash.
This is not a fix but until they do correct this issue with the auto-reload function, one way around this is to use the combine feature (circle button) to reload a magazine from your inventory. You can also store magazines in your item wheel and combine from there if you wish.
Personally, I store all of mags at the top of my inventory (chest rig IIRC) so I can simply open the inventory and then quickly select the mag without having to scroll down. Ever since I started reloading mags this way, I have not had a single mag failure / glitch. I've been able to keep / use all of my weapons and magazines for weeks on end.
The exception are the single loading weapons or those with internal magazines / tubes like the shotgun, SKS, etc. Those I can reload with using the triangle button with no issue.
This is certainly not a fix but I'm hoping it can help you until there is.
@Kean__1 Yes. At the moment, this is the only way to solve the problem (recharge through "О")
