I recall dealing with a similar error that occured when zooming and having FOV != 100. The direct cause is IMO that "the weapon failed to be created." Possible solutions:
1-use FOV=100, like everyone
2-use the FOV fix by ztorm
3-patch to 1.2 (it includes a basic fov fix)
4-code the fix yourself

Then I have a weird FoV bug, since I am manually changing it to 105, when I switch weapons, sg or rifle, the fov does not stop increasing until the entire screen is smashed into a little box about 1/6 the size of the screen, and the game crashes again.

Changing the FOV in v1.0&v1.1 causes crashs. Why didn't you try the FOV fix before posting? Did you even search for FOV related posts?

Patch to 1.2. If it still crashs, we've got a problem.

Perhaps you could have done that a little bit earlier?

And yeah, ch4 DOES have performance issues. Live with it or bash the devs (though that won't change anything).
