Can't alternate between magazines by reloading with 'R' (1.11)
New, NormalPublic

Description

I'm playing on hardcore official, none of the weapons or items related to the functioning of the weapons were damaged.

I reload all my guns/cycle between magazines by holding R, but in this case I can't cycle between magazines on my LAR after doing it once. It seems it doesn't accept a magazine if it was already reloaded by holding R, even if its full.
I have tried to do the same with my FX 45 and it works properly, every time I hold R it cycles between two magazines as many times as I want, with the LAR, not so much, can only cycle once before it stops working.

I have chosen this severity level because it can most likely cause someone's death in a pvp or pve situation if the user is not aware.

I relogged and I was happy that the problem was solved! But no.. now instead of that problem happening on the LAR now it happens on my FX45 instead..
I've edited the tittle and removed the LAR from it since it happens with more guns as Arthur said too.

Edit: And now its happening on both.
Edit x2: I found out a silly work around for this silly glitch as we wait for it to get patched, which is having a different number of bullets in each mag. Example on LAR: Having a clip with 19 (one chambered) and the other clip being full (20), then you can cycle mags without it getting glitched.

When this happens, do you also have problems reloading magazine 2 directly from the quickbar/hotbar?

It works fine with he hotbar, it only gets 'jammed' when you try to reload normally, holding R.

I can only reproduce this if both magazines are full and there's one bullet chambered. If in one of the magazines I have 19 instead of 20 bullets for example, then it will work fine. (As long as it isn't "jammed" already - if so, need to relog)
