This video demonstrates how to skip or cover your gun reload animation by using a power in Mass Effect 3 Multiplayer ("how to use a power while reloading").
I play Multiplayer a lot and even though I'd read about this and have seen it happening in videos, I just hadn't really tried it myself or thought it over. Thought I'd post a "how to" video showing how this works where you overlap the reload animation of a gun by using a power. When you're done using the power, the gun is reloaded (or pretty much so).
The basic idea is to use a power in the short window of time before the reloading animation on a gun starts. Some dodges/rolls may also work instead of a power. By the time the power animation is through, the gun is reloaded (or nearly so).
