How do I individually load a bullet into a gun?

How do I individually load a bullet into a gun? - Black Rifle

If I don't have a magazine/clip to a gun in DayZ, how do I load a single bullet into the chamber if I have the proper ammo for it?

Say I have a 9mm handgun and 9mm bullets, how would I put a 9mm bullet into the chamber of the 9mm handgun?



Best Answer

Tab out and drag the ammunition from your inventory onto the gun - the ammo should highlight orange to signify that it is compatible, it will chamber the round on mouse up.

Or

Hotbar the weapon and the ammo round/stack, whilst the weapon is in your hand hold the key for the hot-barred ammunition, it will chamber it the round. - This is the preferred method for when you are in a PVP situation without a mag as you will not need to tab out.
