Cremator new multibarrel Bug?

Hey guys, is anyone else experiencing the following bug?

My multibarrel cremator doesnt fire 4 balls of pink fire anymore. The spread has become super narrow and it appears to fire 2-3 balls. I was able to revert to the regular multibarrel 4 balls spread after opening the weapon at a workbench but without actually modifying anything. And yet, after restarting the game hours later the narrow spread bug is back.

Suggestions?
