Possibly related #40376 (comment)

Did you try with the gun unloaded? I believe this is a requirement. I was able to attach gunmods to a weapon in the latest build, but only after removing any cartidges.

I'll repeat here what I said in the comments under that issue

The UI should be improved. It should display loaded guns in the menu, but grayed out with a message explaining that you should unload the gun first. Otherwise it is hard for a new player to figure this mechanic out.

Here's me trying this in 0.D. It looks like there was a UI prompt for trying to mod a loaded gun that was removed sometime in the last half year.

@hexagonrecursion yeah, the gun was loaded- thanks for the help.
Should I create a new issue for the lack of "cannot mod a loaded gun" prompt?

Should I create a new issue for the lack of "cannot mod a loaded gun" prompt?

@ConnorMartin That is what I would do

LVF can't confirm, and even if this is still a bug i'm confident that #41917 fixes it. if it doesn't, after it's merged a new issue can be opened.
