Summarize your bug When using the M30 Drilling shotgun for the support class when you shoot the rifle round you are unable to swap to the buckshot firing mode until the rifle round is finished reloading. And same goes for switching to the rifle round while reloading the buckshot. this is a very frustrating issue and really takes away from the fun while using the gun as it leads to death while reloading constantly. The weapon didn't always function this way, it began happening after the first January 2019 patch.
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Simply use the weapon in the training grounds
What happens when the bug occurs? You are forced to wait for the reload to complete before being able to change the firing mode
What should be happening instead? The weapons firing mode should be able to change at any time regardless or it being in a reload animation or not
So i tested and found that if the firing mode button was pressed near instantaneously after firing the rifle round then it would swap to the buckshot, but once the reload animation begins you are stuck waiting to change the firing mode until the reload is complete.
