Still no. I’m stuck in a ticket loop that’s getting pretty frustrating - but at the end of the day I think they’ve acknowledged the bug and it may or may not be a priority for them.
Incidentally two other textural issues : bullet decals are gone (if you shoot at a wall it used to leave bullet holes, now they don’t) ; and the “target circles” in 1000 Cuts are missing.
After I switched to the new ultra HD textures DLC, I’ve noticed that all the elemental sniper rifles are missing the glow textures (red for fire, purple for slag, etc) most noticeable in the maliwan ones, the mag and the insides of the gun are supposed to also glow with the same color.
Without HD textures (as it’s supposed to look):
With HD textures (buggy):
I submitted a bug report as you suggested a couple months ago.
This is obviously still ongoing even with the DLC update. Along with bullet decals and the missing target circles.
Multiple tickets from multiple users. Still no timeline for a fix.
Started playing a bit again and despite the patches we’ve received this year already, no fixes for these issues. I’m going to uninstall the UHD DLC and hopefully get my pretty glowing textures back. It’s probably not worth it on my 1080p monitors to have 4K textures anyway.
I made a followup ticket to check the status of the bug and they told me that customer support does not have “visibility” on progress of the fix, so they can’t tell me anything.
While it seems we don’t have a fix for Maliwan snipers 
we do have bullet decals back 
I might be the only one who ever cared about this but it was more distressing (well that might be overstating it somewhat) than not knowing which Pimp I was using.
Also target circles are back.
Don’t worry - you can get rid of those by changing a setting in the config file.
