[0973] PR: Vietnam M14 sound bug

Hi everyone,
i have tested PR: Vietnam for twenty minutes now and the first thing i have got to say is, that i am impressed by the good work; i have found a minor problem with the M14 though: Sometimes, when the reloading animation starts, you hear another gunshot as if there was another bullet in the chamber.
Steps to reproduce:

1) Take any kit with a M14
2) Put it on semi and fire some rounds
3) While using the same magazine, set it on automatic fire and empty the mag.
4) You should hear the sound of another 7.62 round going of while your magazine is empty and you are not pulling the trigger.

As i am not in possesion of a proper recording program, i cannot upload a video, sorry for that one.

P.S.: Sorry for my English skills :P

This also happens with the M16A1 in assault but you'd fire one bullet and hear another even though you haven't fired two.

But your problem does happen, when the rifle is still ready to fire and there are some bullets left in the mag?
Because the one with the M14 does "fire" another round a few seconds after the last shot is out of the rifle.

Never had that before when playing PR; that is new to me and i play since 0.874 ^^. You may be right though.

EDIT: This is not a PR: Vietnam issue; in my opinion, in PR (or BF2, i don't really now) when you switch firing modes as described, some weapons are prone to have this sound bug, especially those with 20 rounds in the mag: I had this sound bug on M14, G3A3, Vz.61, MP7A1, G3SG1 and FAL now, and RazoR41 had this on the M16A1, which also has a 20 round magazine. I don't know if this helps, but maybe devs could make use of this information.
