Check your config
If you are using vtf crosshairs, check the .txt file of the scattergun and see if theres anything after "TracerEffect". If there isn't, you will have to add "bullet_scattergun_tracer01" (with the quotation marks) in order for it to work. See here: https://imgur.com/a/kpkD7bi

If that doesn't fix the problem, check if your config automatically puts the viewmodel_fov to the lowest possible value (its something like 0.000001). That also disables bullet tracers afaik. Putting the viewmodel_fov to a normal value and then just disabling viewmodels should fix it.

r_drawtracers_firstperson might be turning itself off when you hit your pistol bind, idk if you have weapon switch configs/viewmodel binds

My tracers show but only for a little bit compared to how they normally should be, showing the entire path and with every shot. I doubt it'd be my config, but I do have a suspicion I might need a reinstall.
Already tried with the 'autoconfig' command line tag and nothing changed.
