📋 About This Mod
Just realized that i have uploaded ADS for pistols and ARs but not for the grip straight rifles.
Different styles of ADS ( aim Down Sights) for the combat rifle / hunting / shotguns / lasers, each one made to fit each weapon.
no it does not separate them but makes the ADS different, you can try and use whichever ADS but it was easier just to label them as each of them because they were made with those weapons in mind.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Tight focus on ADS animations—if you're tired of the vanilla aim feel, this gives each weapon class its own personality.
- Decent community traction for a niche animation mod (43 endorsements, 5,259 downloads).
- Recently updated (December 2025), so it's likely compatible with current game versions.
⚠️ Cons
- Only covers four weapon categories—if you want ADS styles for pistols or automatics, this won't help.
- Small mod with limited endorsements, so you're relying on a niche creator's vision.
- Potential conflicts with other animation overhauls that touch the same weapon animations.
For Fallout 4 players who want a more immersive, weapon-specific aiming feel without overhauling the whole game. If you're a purist who likes vanilla animations, skip it—this is purely cosmetic.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2 to install—it's a simple drop-in, but a manager makes uninstalling clean.
- If you use other animation mods, load this one after them to ensure its ADS styles take priority.
- Test in third-person and first-person to see the full effect, as ADS animations can differ between views.
