secret weapon reload animations

I watched Westie's old youtube video about lMG 08/18 today ("LMG 08/18: THE PERFECT LIGHT MACHINE GUN! - Battlefield 1 Apocalypse DLC").
I didn't know that the lMG 08/18 Suppressive variant had a secret reload animation (sound effect).


Plus and this is the cool part, Dice decided to add a community-driven Easter egg into the reload of the suppressive variant and I showed you it in the intro to this video. If you fire all of the rounds from the 200 round drum magazine down to just the last 13 and then hit reload on that 13th round more often than not you're gonna hear a "Pop Goes the Weasel" Jack-in-the-box sound play as you crank the belt back in. Now this idea was suggested by Flakfire during the CTE testing of the weapon. He posted a short clip on Twitter and I think it was more of a joke than anything else but lower behold it ends up in the final Battlefield 1 game.

I tried it and on average the fourth or fifth reload of the lMG 08/18 Suppressive is really "tricky".

My question is what other weapons have a similar secret reload animation in Battlefield 1?

    I haven't seen a video about reload the Kolibri in third person view (and the player must lie prone).
    It's worth watching on youtube, it's funny.

    The Kolibri has an easter egg third-person reload animation that is randomly triggered when prone, where the player character will be shown patting the ground as if they had dropped the Kolibri and are struggling to recover it.
