📋 About This Mod
Chinese Assault Rifle to AK-47 Assault Rifle Mod - By Cocknose -------------------------------------------------------------- Description: This mod remodels the Chinese Assault Rifle to being an AK-47 Assault Rifle and also gives it a new sound. It also renames it an gives the weapon 30 rounds per clip. The reason I created this mod is because hey who doesn\'t like an AK. The gun model was made by brurpo and the sound is by Type2, . I don\'t like introducing a new, perfectly clean gun to the waste land so that is why I used brurpo\'s texture as it does not look perfectly clean but its by no means dirty and so sould fit in whatever your taste. There are 2 versions of this mod, one does not edit the in accuraccy of this gun which makes it usable at at least some range and one that does not change the accuracy. I recommend that you use the one which does edit the accuracy as they are by no means overpowered and make them usable at range and should fit in with the real values for a AK. NOTE: This mod works with the Pitt Update: This mod now supports Operation Anchorage just download the anchorage support file and install it to. -------------------------------------------------------------- OTHER MOD BY ME THAT YOU MIGHT BE INTRESTED IN: American Assault Rifle To M4A1 Carbine; http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=5141 -------------------------------------------------------------- Installation: 1. Unzip the AK-47_Assault_Rifle.zip file but not directly into the fallout 3 data folder. 2. Open the unziped folder. 2. Drag and drop the stat_edit_AK-47_Assault_Rifle.esp or the AK-47_Assault_Rifle.esp into your fallout3 data folder depending on if you want the accuracy stat edited or not. Default location \" C:\\Program Files\\Bethesda Softworks\\Fallout 3\\Data \". 3. Drag and drop the meshes folder into your fallout3 data folder. 4. Drag the texture folder into the fallout 3 data folder. 5. Drag the sound folder into the fallout 3 data folder. 6. Download install and activate ArchiveInvalidation Invalidated! if you have not already. Now open up the data files from the fallout launcher and put a tick in the box beside AK-47_Assault_Rifle or stat_edit_AK-47_Assault_Rifle. -------------------------------------------------------------- Uninstall: 1. Remove the .esp from your Fallout 3 Data folder. 2. Remove the file assaultrifle from Fallout 3\\Data\\Meshes\\Weapons\\2handautomatic 3. Remove the files with the word \" assaultrifle \" from this location Fallout 3\\Data\\textures\\weapons\\2handautomatic but do not remove any that assaultrifle....g3 in there name. -------------------------------------------------------------- Compatibility: This plugin only edits the Chinese Assault rifle and does not edit the American Assault rifle. So as long as no other mod edits Chinese Assaul

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Classic AK-47 look for Fallout 3, a nice change from the standard Chinese rifle
- Community-approved with 283 endorsements and over 11k downloads
- Lightweight mod that doesn't mess with stats or balance
⚠️ Cons
- No screenshots or detailed description, so you're flying blind on the visual quality
- Last updated in 2009, so it may have compatibility issues with newer mods or DLC
- Just a model swap—if you wanted new animations or sounds, this isn't it
For Fallout 3 players who want a more familiar AK-47 look without changing gameplay. If you're a purist who likes the original Chinese rifle, skip it. This is purely cosmetic and best for those who appreciate the classic Soviet design.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's a simple replacer, just drop the files into your Data folder and enable the .esp in the launcher.
- If you're using mod managers like FOMM, install it through there to keep things tidy.
- Check if you have other weapon mods that might conflict—this replaces the Chinese assault rifle, so any mod that alters that weapon could clash.
