Okay. I don't have any footage to go with this, but let me explain what happened:
Today I was in orbit dismantling white level equipment that I bought from Cryptarch (don't ask why) and I want to orbit. I started to dismantle these whites and when dismantling my white heavy machine gun, a glitch occurred which didn't dismantle the white, but it instead dismantled the Gjallarhorn I had next to it.
I would like to add that this Gjallarhorn was locked so it should not be able to be dismantled and the dismantle timer was the 2.5 seconds and not the 8 seconds for exotics.
I don't know what caused this but I thought I should bring it to your attention and the attention of everyone else. This glitch is a real thing but I seem to be the only one effected by it so far. If it's new I don't know or just an extreme bug in my version of the game. Just a heavy warning to other players. Be alert when dismantling, if this happens to you, make sure to record the clip and send it to Bungie. (I rage quit from the game so hard I couldn't save the footage.)
Be cautious in the world Guardians. Watch over your exotics with care.

If so, I have ran into this issue with my Mida-Multi Tool, I swapped the weapon a tiny bit too early and it got dismantled in it's place. PLEASE be careful with this glitch, it is VERY high risk, place all valued weapons in the Vault, or on another character to be safe.
