This is a glitch common to not just gorgon or any particular weapon or even the enemy type of level you are on (You probably notice it more on infested since you and any sane person uses melee more against infested).

Every now and then it seems you cannot melee and sometimes cannot use X (or whatever you have bound to open locker/revive teammate/use elevator/ obliterating  -err- capturing targets). Appears to eventually fix itself though I haven't found a foolproof manner.

Using abilities, swapping weapons, jumping around and doing wall runs or a combination of them seem to reset the bug. My best guess is some kind of animation or ability bug where the game thinks you're still in a state where you cannot melee or perform (most) other actions.
