This always happened to me when I had a weapon that was changed or added by a mod. Narrowing it down was a pain in the butt because I literally had to disable each and every mod and activate them again one by one to see which mod was causing the crash.

Unless it's something different, sounds like you'll nee to disable all mods that add/change weapons, and then enable them one at a time to see which is giving you the crash.

i did what you said to do and it was not the problem its something else

try uninstalling any mods you have that affect any guns that happen to be in that locker, in case it's a mesh/texture issue (disabling mods doesn't remove them from your data folder, which is necessary to remove anything cutting into the paths for models textures)

There's a bug in the NV engine where sometimes two of the same item can stack, but the counter that says they're stacked never shows up. When this bug manifests, it can cause CTDs when interacting with the container it occurs in. I've personally seen it happen with armors and weapons.

I've never encountered that, would remove all items work to maybe give it a kick?

Spartan try the following:

open the console

click on the locker of question

type: removeallitems player 1 1

press enter

close console

you should now be loaded down with EVERYTHING in the locker, if you haven't crashed yet, open the locker and put it all back
