Head in the sand

Is it just me or is anyone else getting this?
I noticed it only today and it happens with the Brit models.
I was checking somthing using dod_jagd. I picked up a PIAT and went prone.
In the zoomed, i.e ready to fire state, all is well, but as soon as you unshoulder it, the player model sticks his head in the sand (see attached pic).
I looked at the german models and it doesnt exhibit this problem at all with the panzershrek.
I tried recompiling the Brit model telling it to use the panzershrek animations instead for the prone_piat_aim anims but STILL my soldier stuck his head in the sand.
Is this a new bug? Known bug or something else?

ROFL that's hilarious. Never noticed it, I'll try it out in-game see if I get (as im guessing) the same result.
AHAHAHA, that british soldier really loves his mother earth!
I don't know, never seen it happen (or may be i just don't remember). But it seems like a weird bug to me, somebody else noticed?

I've seen this happen with the MG's that are prone when they are reloading... I can't say I've paid much attention to it, and I don't even know if the default models do this as well...

Wish the Half Life engine was able to account for degrees in slopes...

.... now that was funny!!!:D
I'm glad that gives the Brits an advantage. Hey! Let me back into the wall, prone so my legs are in the wall, and shoulder the PIAT.
I see player model bugs like that all the time. Sometimes they can give a person's position away, ie. half of the gun sticking out of walls. I've scored many kills through my scopes because of that bug. And vice versa:D
