Weapon throw

[DerrocK (DayZ) 39]

So I was running around looking for that myth called tent when my char suddendly stops and throws my 10 kill fully decked AKM away. my love...

 

It, of course, dissapeared after falling through the ground. This happened on the stable branch 3rd person, weapon equipped full sprint around a forest near devil's castle. I never pressed G at any given moment. When my character threw away the AKM it just fell through the ground without travelling any distance (right where my character was).

Report it in the dev hub. Could possibly be a bug. Try to reproduce it.

It's a known bug, sometimes it throws the weapon when you've not pressed G; thankfully it's not very often. Had it happen to myself before as well as others.

It's triggered by rolling with the gun pointed. Don't do it.

As I described, I never rolled with the gun pointed. Just running/sprinting with the gun on my hands, that's it.
