Jumped in the water with an MXM sniper rifle, exited the water, ran around on the dock and it will not let me fire or change weapon selection on the rifle.
Have to swap to pistol which works fine, swap back to rifle which then works fine.
Game isn't registering when you leave the water and are able to fire your weapon again.

It would be interesting if there was a wait time to use a wet weapon. I think the HK416 can be dunked and used almost immediately after a good shake.
Would also be neat to see/hear suppressors being more effective after being wet.
Ok so I tried this out myself. I used an MX and went for a swim. Everything worked fine.
Then I tried it again but this time in a wetsuit and with a Katiba. I couldn't bring it up to aim or fire the rifle. It was all I had at the time, so I dropped it to the ground. It worked again after I picked it up.

I've had the same issue with every weapon thus far (including the pistol). The scenario goes like this: 1)have weapon out 2) enter water 3) exit water 4) weapon won't fire.
as has been listed here, there are several work arounds to this problem (ie dropping/re-equipping, switching weapons, and personally using the F key, which i believe is default firing mode, also made the weapon operable again.) however, due to the nature of the work arounds, I do believe this is a bug and not a feature. I just say this to clarify on the nature of this and related issues and that it likely isn't an intentional occurrence
