📋 About This Mod
Please visit us on Discord:
The Winchester 1873 is a great weapon which just needed a few fixes and adjustments. Then I made a Mare's Leg Version, Replacer version, and combinations of those. Then 5 receivers, 2 Barrels, 5 mod collections, and multiple weapon templates were added.
Weapon Edits
- modcol_HuntingRifle_Grips_Rifle changed to new FormID and name
- Fixed modcol_ODW_Winchester_Model1873_Barrels_Any to use 1873 Barrels rather than Hunting Rifle Barrels.
- Set modcol_ODW_Winchester_Model1873_Skins_Furniture to have the correct Attach Point.
- Removed the craftable records for the "Bullets - 15" so it won't show in the workbench.
- Changed the names of the modification categories.
- Added 5 Receivers
- Added 2 Barrels
- Added 5 weapon collections
- Set WEAP record to . 44 caliber with 48 Damage.
- Added. 45-70 Receiver Conversion available at Gun Nut 3.
- Edited barrel range values to follow the Far-Harbor Lever-action settings
- Set Short Stock to use WeapTypePistol for Gunslinger perks.
- Added weapon templates to emulate Levergun templates
- Changed weapon Value from 40 to 150
- Changed Sound level from Normal to Loud
- Valued all the misc mods to organize the workbench menus
- mod collections expanded and leveled for gradual spawning and better variety
A second weapon was created too, the Winchester 1873 Mare's Leg.
- Uses WeaponTypePistol and will get Gunslinger perks.
- Only Uses Short Barrel
- Only Uses Short Stock
- Separate Injection adds this to:
- - LL_PipeGun

I've been editing short rifles as standalone weapons to dilute the Pipegun spawns some.

- Mare's Leg and replacer versions give you options for different playstyles

💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have the original Winchester 1873 mod installed first, even though it's not listed here — this patch won't work without it.
- Use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2 to handle the file structure, since manual installation can be tricky with multiple versions.
- Check the mod's posts or comments for load order advice, as patches often need to load after the base weapon mod.
