✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 1,435 endorsements and over 200k downloads.
- Simple and effective—does exactly what it says, no bloat.
- Uses redscript, so it's likely compatible with other redscript mods.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2022—may not be compatible with the latest game patches.
- Requires redscript to be installed separately, which isn't mentioned in the description.
For Cyberpunk 2077 players who find the default holstering animation too slow or want a quick keybind to put away their weapon. If you're a fan of QoL mods and already use redscript, this is a no-brainer. Skip if you want more complex holstering mechanics or if you're not comfortable installing mods manually.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have redscript installed first, as this mod depends on it.
- Check the mod's comments section for any known issues with the latest game version.
- If you're using a mod manager like Vortex, let it handle the file placement to avoid conflicts.
