Enabling Infinite Magazines on a Weapon with an Empty Magazine Breaks Fire Rate

Summary

If a player shoots all of the bullets in a weapon’s magazine, and then is assigned a class with infinite magazines before reloading, the max fire rate of the weapon becomes unlimited for semi-auto fire.

For example, if a player has a heavy sniper, shoots the 1 bullet in the magazine, and then is assigned infinite magazines. The player will be able to fire shots as fast as they can tap fire.

If they press-and-hold fire, the fire rate behaves as normal.
