All units start with AWARD pistol in stock game?! [Solved]

[SkinnyODST]

Ok so yesterday I was playing BF2, unmodded (CW) and I unlocked the AWARD pistol. when I died with it, I still had it. I died again, I still had it. The match ended and I started a new match on a different map, and I still had it unlocked. Now today I go back on to play, and I noticed that every single unit, on every single era, has the AWARD pistol instead of the normal pistol. It even does this with mod maps. It`s like the game has completely taken out the normal pistol and just replaced it with the AWARD pistol.
Does anyone know why/how this is happening and how to fix it? This is so strange!

EDIT: Just to clarify, I was playing BF2 with the ingame skinchanger mod. I was changing around the skins for the clones. Could that have something to do with it?

An award becomes permanent for your player profile once you earned a medal for it at least 64 times (reaching Legendary status).

Oh wowwwwww. I never knew about that! All these years playing Battlefront and I never got this. I made a new profile and it`s all back to normal now.
Haha thanks for clearing that up

Is it possible to have negative score for medals? This could've happened since I earned far too many Endurance Awards. O_o;
