@yougothoozled I like the idea of attachment-traps, not sure how practical they'd be or what would happen once the trap goes off (does the enemy have i.e. a purple mag afterwards? Or nothing?)
The issue I see is that people never like it when they lack control, so if you for example pick up a purple R99 dropping what ever else you have only to have it explode and become a naked gun, that means you do not only take damage but may have also downgraded massively and wasted time. The gun you had originally might now be in the storm, impossible to get back.
I like the idea because it is new, and experimenting with the systems in place is a good thing rather than just copy-pasting with slight variation.
I made a "Loba alternative" concept earlier as well and this is different. I would perhaps expand on the ultimate a little bit. Upgrading an attachment can be good, but maybe he could do something more? Or expand on how the interaction would occur? Perhaps he has connections and can send for a sponsored supply drone after picking up X amount of materials?
Maybe the box under the drone glows green? Perhaps it is a deathbox flown in by a trained dragon on the maps that has those? Dropping it nearby the team.
Just some ideas.

No the gun would explode or the attachment would blow somthing would most definitely explode lol u need to go over and re read the description
@yougothoozledDo you mean that the gun gets completely destroyed?
Or that you get an attachment, but also that the enemy who uses it will take damage when the first bullet is fired from the gun? Then afterwards it works?
Or:1: manifest sees an attachment
2: he uses his skill to make it look better, but also boobytrapping it3: enemy picks it up thinking it's a better attachment than what he/she has
4: enemy uses the gun, it explodes dealing damage5: the attachment is reverted back to what ever it was before Manifest used his skill on it.
*If it reverts, I would make so that if it replaces an attachment it could not downgrade. But if the slot was empty from the start (meaning there was no attachment, like a stock or magazine) the attachment is reverted to the original tier.You could possibly have more damage on higher tiers of attachments to give a small bonus for not picking them up yourself.
At first I was thinking the whole gun is destroyed but got me thinking that was way to OP so I figured I'll go with he makes the attachments and drops them
Enemy picks up attachment
Enemy goes to shoot gun and soon as it happens they'd hear a quick beeping indicating they've been hoodwinked
