Rogue thrown knives issue

Not sure if there’s a thread on this already. So I recently started playing Wow classic as a rogue miner/ engineer. I crafted a rough boomstick (because I could). Once I reached level 10 I bought training for guns so I could use it. Didn’t work, found out the ability was removed for rogues, sold boomstick. When I re-equiped the throwing knives I kept seeing a message saying “out of range” no matter how close I got. I could be two bear lengths away and still get “out of range” or whatever it’s says. Had 25 throwing knives, still have 25 throwing knives. Anyone else having this issue or know how to fix it?

rogues can use guns.

drag the knives into your “ranged” slot, and use the “throw” ability.

I’m on classic. I did that before posting on here. I unequipped my throwing knives then re equipped them. Still nothing.

yes, you mentioned that in the first post. (even though this isn’t the classic bug report forum)

Have you trained to use thrown weapons?

Sorry. I eventually figured out where I made my mistake.
