[Game Freezes When Equiping Gun's that have a gun charm attached] [Linux]

Anti cheat issue has been fixed on linux but now whenever you equip a gun that has any skin that is nott the default skin it makes the game freeze completely for 1/2 seconds ,
Also alot of times the skins of characters will not be loaded and it uses the default fire-range dummy skins:

For the weapons:

Here is a person swapping to skins that are using any skin but the defautl skin which will cause the lag/ freeze

Here is a person that loaded all the default skin's and it wont freeze up :

People are discussing it here to:
https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/4350

Also on a sidenote i played a singles game and my master badge turned into a pred badge while i never reached pred in the death recap: (banners also dont show the legend)

    With current bleeding-edge Proton I don't have stutters any more in the firing range.

    @Cubuss I have removed all weapon charms from my gun and I still occasionally experience it. The freezing is still random for me. One thing I must try is disabling obs-gamecapture. I think the game was running smoothly without it, but I still have to test it.

    @Cubuss I see some updates to the bleeding edge Proton experimental today. I need to test it out with it. My guess is that a Proton update will silently fix the issue. EA and Respawn won't do anything but Valve might.
