📋 About This Mod

Renames the Nuka World "Handmade Rifle" to "Chinese Rifle".

I love the Handmade Rifle from the Nuka World DLC - it's the proper assault rifle that was conspicuously absent in the main game - but I never much liked the name. It's vague and forgettable, and I don't see how these rifles are any more handmade than the far more obviously cobbled-together pipe guns. It's a nitpick, for sure, but that's what I love about modding, I can tweak any little detail that rubs me the wrong way. :D

Anyway, it's clearly a Kalashnikov, and I figure that the most likely way that design would've reached the Commonwealth would be as a Chinese AK copy. Though it's not the same gun, it shares more than a passing resemblance to the Chinese Assault Rifle from Fallout 3, so I figure it's part of the same family. As such, I renamed it to "Chinese Rifle", which becomes "Chinese Assault Rifle" if it has a full-auto receiver or "Chinese Sniper Rifle" if it's fitted with a scope. All of the other prefixes and suffixes like Hardened, Bayoneted, etc. still work, too.

======== Installation ========

1. Extract the .esp file in the archive to the Data folder in your Fallout 4 main directory. 2. Activate the .esp with the mod manager of your choice.

======== Compatibility ========

This mod changes only one record in Instance Naming Rules, DLC04_dn_CommonGunUpdate. No changes were made to the weapon itself (DLC04_HandmadeGun), so the likelihood of conflicts is low.

======== Changelog ========

v1. 0 - Initial release.

======== Tools Used ========

FO4Edit 3. 1. 3 Experimental
