Because there is a (or possible several) bug(s) affecting the relevant xml-file.
Try running the repair tool and/or try deleting your weapongroups.xml (in your ...\MechWarrior Online\USER\Profiles\yourname folder). The game will create a new one and you'll have to make new weapon groups.
This is said to have worked for some people but not everyone.
There's a bug though that makes some 'mechs share their weapongroups, if you change something on one 'mech the other will be changed too. No fix or workaround for that, yet.
In any event submit a support ticket, can't ever be enough of those.

Easy way to fix it, check your folder for write protection.
Remove it.
Profit.
Seems either windows or MWO sets some folder to read only every now and then.

Well, be glad that you don't get the 'connecting' bug if you change them then go into the testing grounds.
