I never understand this suggestion when it's made. It would seem guns in AC are reloaded by hand, hence the downward animation when you begin the reload and the upward animation as it ends. How do you plan to fire a pistol while you're reloading?
Perhaps the wording of my suggestion was gauche. Let me rephrase:
If you are reloading, you can choose to STOP reloading in order to switch to your secondary.
Go in-game and start reloading a primary weapon and try to switch to your secondary. Now imagine if you started to reload and decided you want to switch to your secondary instead, this would prevent the primary weapon from reloading and cause the player to reload when the primary is brought up again (manually if current ammo > 0, Automatic if current ammo == 0)
