Unable to Switch Weapons

Okay, so I have a unit with a shotgun and pistol. In the spawn menu, it only says pistol, but when I spawn, he starts with the shotgun. Then, when I switch to pistol, I can't switch back to shotgun.
Help?

One of the awards weapons glitch this is. Make sure your weapons do not inherit from a ClassParent.

Han Solo has the same trouble in the XBox

And the PC and probably other platforms too. This problem will only occur when you have/earn certain award weapons.

Don't they need to inherit from the parent to function properly? How would I change that?
This is the award shotgun and jango's pistol.

You can't set up the award shotgun like a normal weapon. If you do, you will only be able to use it if you have obtained the award shotgun in your game profile.

How do I make it a normal weapon, like how the precision pistols were made into jango's pistols? Do I need to delete this line in the award shotgun odf?

Try it. I'm not entirely sure, because I've never really messed with the awards weapons.

Your weapon doesn't need to inherit from any ClassParent. As long as it has a ClassLabel and has all the necessary ODF parameters, it will work. Here's an example of a ClassParent-less weapon:
