1. spawn into an online game as a standard rifleman with default loadout
   
2. go to an armory and select "save loadout"
   
3. respawn with the saved loadout
   
4. notice that you can't raise your equipped weapon, reload it, fire it or otherwise do anything with it at all. the game behaves as if it isn't equipped..
   
5. open your inventory (default TAB) and notice that you can't drop, move, or in any way access the items stored there.

workarounds:

1. press the jump key
