Did you put it in a tent/vehicle?If it was equipped, it's possible the server didn't save it when you logged outIf you put it in a backpack, it's possible it ate the gun. This happens when there's not enough space in your pack to store the gun.If it was in a tent or vehicle, you might not have saved the vehicle or tent that had the item. This means that on a server reset (which could've happened when you were at work) that the gun poofed into space. Edited August 10, 2012 by JMan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bravo2zer0 1 Posted August 10, 2012 (edited) I made sure I did it the proper way, I made sure was enough gear in my bag after dropping my SVD, I then picked it up used it for awhile, put it in my backpack (I see it in there) and then logout.. soo dissappointed! grrI only JUST got it so could hardly be attached to it, what periods do servers save though? I was running around with it for about 15minutes. The server did restart though but I did log out about 5minutes before restart.
