Like many of you, you're running into bugs that completely destroy your sense of immersion and progress from lack of actual playtesting. One such issue that plagued me was not being able to stash River's gift to you, the "Crash" revolver. So I spent some time trying to duplicate this weapon, drop it, upgrade it etc. nothing worked. Now this is the ONLY thing after 6-7 hours that will actually work. It's the only thing and unfortunately it may only work for people who have no upgraded the gun. So if you've turned it into a legendary and don't have the save where River gives you his weapon, you're SoL, sorry.

So once River gives you his weapon, drink with him and finish the mission completely. Fast travel back to your crappy apartment you can't move from (thanks for the options CDPR) and save inside your shitty apartment. Once you've saved, skip time by five days. Now hit escape and have your stupid little headache temper tantrum, it's going to be a long one, and once that's over with (don't take chances by prematurely going to your inventory, this game is a buggy mess) go to your inventory and Crash should no longer be bound to your inventory.

I've tried doing this method with upgraded versions of crash, it won't work. After 7 hours of testing this is the only method I can get to work.

Good luck and CDPR...just please fix this game. And next time, seek money from other avenues besides bankers. They ran off with the money while your reputation has been soured. Think they care? Bahaha! Nope.

You managed to store Skippy as well? Man I never picked it up the second time as I couldn't get rid the first time.

Anyway, I'll give this a shot when I get to it.

I did the quest attached to Skippy. Now, before I handed it back to Regina (stupid quest wtf is the point of letting us stash it if you're going to take it away?) You need to do the duplicate trick. Easy to do. I'll post a video that gets to the point about duplication. But you need to tell Skippy you're keeping him first, sell him to the vending machine, do the duplication glitch, store duplicated Skippy, give original Skippy to Regina. You'll be able to actually have a Stash that isn't missing a weapon.
