FNX45 Mag not going on FNX45

[Suicide King 1]

I have an FNX45 and I found a magazine for it, however I cannot seem to get it to attach to the gun. I got a supressor and flashlight on it no problem. I can chamber a round of ammo, but the magazine won't attach to it. Anyone else run into this? Is there a trick to it or something?

And yes, I''m positive it is the right magazine for the gun. :)

Are you sure it is not ruined?

I'm not sure. I'll check that next time I log in.

Same happened to me when i tried to chamber the Pistol before i load the mag. However it will not work until you unchamber the Pistol again...That worked for me. Hope it helps.

This is the answer.  

 

You have to put the pistol in your hands on the inventory screen to be able to unload it.  Once you do, you should see 1 round underneath it that you can right click on (or probably just drag off).  Don't ask me how long it took me to figure that out :)

If there is a round in the chamber you have to eject it, then try to attach the magazine.

Ejecting the round did resolve the issue. Thanks for the help guys!

Need to fix this bug as a chambered round shouldn't impact magazine insertion.

It's not a bug, I guess? When you are loading a magazine in a pistol, and then pull the slide back, it loads a bullet in the chamber. You can't have 2 bullets in the chamber, right? ;)

You can eject and insert a full mag with one in the chamber - no need to action the slide....

I don't know if it's a bug, or just a flaw in the RV engine, but if the capacity of the magazine is 15 rounds, then you should be able to load the 15 round magazine + 1 more round in the chamber.  You'll see a lot of firearms advertised with a capacity of 15 + 1 or 10 + 1 depending on the capacity of the magazine, and this is what they're talking about.  

 

When I've done it IRL, you put the fully loaded magazine in the weapon, let the slide go forward, chambering the round, drop the magazine and put another round on top and then reinsert the magazine.  Why go running around one short when you don't have to?

 

Should the dev's fix this, sure.  Should it be a priority, nope.

Agreed - needs fixed but a LONG way down the priority list...

When you fire the one round in the chamber it ejects it because the silde goes backwards, right? So there is nothing in the chamber at that point.
