Disappearing UMP and mercs

[Redjac]

Maybe spoiler Ahead:

I completed the army base mission. talk about famin to feast. I suddenly got 3 M-14 and a UMP after the battle. I went to Cali cantinos and was selling some mosin when I noticed after exchanging weapons with my other merc by shifting to the neck and shoulder my ump disappeared. Is this a known issue? I restored a save game so no problem but wondering if this will happen again.


On another note, there are no more mercs I can find. It seems all the bars had one or so earlier on. I skirted every city and the bars are empty. I did lose 2 mercs in the course of the game, but that would be expected.
