Cyclic Modulation Sniper Rifle is not working

Rifle does not show when equipped on your character and will not activate! as it looks like your toon is holding nothing and therefore won't activate or be used in any way! (Flaming, trolling comments moderated out. - BMR)

I'm having the same problem. Rifle doesn't show on character and you can't use it. I paid for this too. Not happy.

@runningbear69 Have you tried attacking with it when you have a target? I've had the weapon since the event it was in, and I am familiar with the fact you can't draw it outside of combat, but I have been able to fire it at enemies.

@runningbear69 I highly advise slowing down, taking a breath, and trying again with some constructive information. If myself, a cohort, or a dev ask you questions like the one above, it's to diagnose the issue for fixing. I understand you're upset but attacking other people trying to help you isn't how to get things fixed. Now I invite you to try again with constructive info and answers.

Now a couple questions. First up, have you verified that you have the "show holstered weapon" setting activated in your character page? If this is off it can sometimes cause issues. Why I don't know, but it can. Second, is there a particular area that it seems to be a worse offender in? Third, what kind of graphics settings are you running on and what kind of video card? Fourth, does the weapon function at all? As in is it purely a cosmetic issues and it actually does damage, or it doesn't function at all kind of thing?

There's a problem with the Cyclic modulation rifle in MUDDS market. The weapon doesn't show on the character.

I can confirm that at least the pistol works as intended; the tertiary ability allows you to cycle through the six energy types (phaser by default, then disruptor, plasma, tetryon, antiproton, and polaron...IIRC, before going back to phaser). Please be aware that any ground device that effects melee damage, e.g. Confederation Combadge or Terran Knife, will override this ability.

Also of note, when used against the Borg, you can cycle through all six energy types as they become adapted to...but be aware that once you cycle back to phaser, the Borg will still be adapted to it as well as the other energy types you cycled through, so you will still have to remodulate eventually.
