Battlefield 3 developer DICE is aware of an issue with the Back to Karkand DLC on PlayStation 3 that occasionally borks a number of weapons and is working on a fix.

A post on the Battlefield Blog explained that the studio is aware that the QBU-88 sniper rifle and MG36-LMG are "not acting as they should".

"We have identified the problem and are working on a fix. We will keep you posted on our progress!"

The Battlefield Blog announcement notes that the weapons should work as normal on the base game maps.
