Maybe this is nonsense ... but why dont we take inspiration in druids?
If you are caster druid, Shapeshift costs you Action ... if you are Shapeshifting druid, it costs ony Bonus Action.

So everyone would have possibility to have two Meele and Two ranged weapon sets ...
And it would seem quite logical to me, if Martial classes would need to only spend Bonus Action to switch their active set of weapons ... since sheating and drawing weapon is basic part of every military (aka marital) training after all ... but others, who dont have such training would have to spend whole Action to do that, since it require a little more focusing for them.

Question then is there if they should spend it only when switching Meele 1 > Meele 2 and Ranged 1 > Ranged 2 (or vice versa, obviously) or even if they are switching between Meele 1 > Ranged 1 ... wich seems a little too restricting to me. :-/

That's not a bad idea, given that Larian like bonus actions for all. But I suspect there would be complaints about restrictive practice from some players smile
