📋 About This Mod
This mod is no longer supported, as I have released the engine level solution - Bullet Counted Reload System. I recommend using that mod instead
(Port is done by jdorenbush)
Update 1. 4
-The most stable lever action reload fix out there. Not anymore after the release of bullet counted reload system
-Finally the fix Here will work with any number of max bullets in magazine for custom weapons.(It's impossible to add that for lever action rifle without directly editing animations because of its reload file that has maximum five bullet insert animation)
Update 1. 3
-Better mod optimization.
-Fixed small issues.
Update 1. 2
-Adjusted time values with all object mod which modify reload speed of the lever action rifle (such as tuned receiver or rapid fire legendary effect).
-Fixed issue when player inserted needed number of bullets in shell even though he hadn't had enough ammo in inventory.
From this update source scripts won't be uploaded here. You will be able to download them from Bullet Counted Reload Tutorial page.
Update 1. 1
-Optimized script
-Now Reload Speed Multiplier is detected automatically (So if something modifies reload speed actor value, needed values will be automatically adjusted)
-Fixes bug when player wasn't able to shoot continuously while holding shoot button.
Description:
This mod fixes the infamous reload bug when using Lever Action Rifle. Player always loaded 5 bullets no matter how many times you have shot.
There already is the other mod which fixes that bug, but this one uses completely different approach, has almost no bugs + works in 3rd person.

For Mod Authors:
I have released a guide for modders which shows how to add bullet counted reload for custom weapons. Check it here: Bullet Counted Reload Tutorial
Please make a clean save before updating.
Installation:
Use NMM or drag and drop files into fallout 4 directory.
Incompatibilities:
As vanilla reload animation is maximum 5 bullet insert, it isn't possible for script to work with mods which increase magazine size of lever act
This bug fix mod for Fallout 4 addressed lever action reload animations, but it is now obsolete after the release of the Bullet Counted Reload System. It remains popular with 3,835 endorsements and 90,965 downloads, last updated in 2017.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved fix with 3,835 endorsements
- Widely downloaded (90,965) — clearly addressed a common annoyance

⚠️ Cons

- No longer updated since 2017 — may conflict with newer mods
For Fallout 4 players who still use the old lever action reload fix and haven't switched to the Bullet Counted Reload System. Skip if you already use the newer system — this mod is redundant.
💡 Beginner Tips
