After trial and error we determined that using the elite red shaders on weapons causes the characters weapons and gear to change to the defaults after a match is played. In other words, the elite shader will be good for one match, but then the next match you enter, all of your weapons will default to the original one the class had, ie first AR and Grimtech and syrettes and frags for Assault class. This also happens when you go to customize after a match and any customizations that had the elite shaders will revert to default. If you change to some other shader, then your customizations stay put.
Elite shaders are reverting loadouts to default weapons/gear
