Insert clever joke here.

If you are a disguised, uncloaked spy, when you reload your revolver, it shows your character reloading.  I saw this on the loading screen as one of the helpful hints.  Reloading may not be a perfect way do demonstrate that you are not a spy, but that depends on how many people are aware of this. 

Or maybe this is only a revelation to myself, and is something everyone else already knew....   Undecided

I read that in a spy guide a long time ago.

It's neat stuff that you can do that.

I was aware. I saw videos of this on youtube. I remember something about the animation not being perfect, if I remember right. As far as helping spies... I'm not too sure people pay much attention when teammates reload. I myself have only used this a few times. Not enough to say if its good or bad.

I'd like to hear from other spies though.

i know that when i'm playing any class, i make sure to keep an eye out for animations such as reloading to tell the difference from spies and teammates. but it sucks you can only reload once without breaking yer disguise lol... and with auto reload on, it's something that's never possible for me anyway. i haven't played spy consistently in a while tho.

you can stop the reload before the animation finishes so you can reload 2,3+ times, but too many will be suspicious.  I always have to turn auto reload off when I play spy or else the gun gets in the way of my reticle.
