I am also seeing it with the item placer device. For me it looks like it is always the first time picking up a certain weapon. For example, your first Blue Assault Rifle won’t be able to shoot but once you pick up another Blue Assault Rifle that one will be able to shoot. I am seeing it a lot with rifles and randomly with shotguns as well. This requires a very urgent bug fix.

I noticed similar happening. I ended up dropping it and picking it up for a second time and then it worked.
