Jamming

Weapon jamming, or the freezing of a gun, rendering it unable to fire, is a rather rare and not well-known occurrance in Combat Arms. It usually happens due to lag when using pistols, but in the case of the Dragunov SVD sniper rifle, it happens every few shots no matter what. In other games, such as Operation 7, weapon jamming is incorporated as a normal part of the game, unlike in Combat Arms. It appears to occur most often in larger caliber pistols such as the USP and the M1911. However, jamming has been reported to occur in nearly all pistols with the notable exception of the USP SE Tactical, which was specifically designed to prevent jamming.
