    SWITCH AMMUNITION TYPES & FIRE MODES, CHANGE SCOPE MODE & ZOOM, USE UNDER-BARREL WEAPONS

    This mod sets up a framework for the ability to switch ammunition types on the fly- like in New Vegas. You can craft a wide range of ammo types, and switch between them easily. The mod adds new ammo types for (almost all) weapons- that let you lay walls of fire or radiation, knock enemies back or just switch to AP to hunt armoured foes. It also adds underslung weapons - grenade launchers and flamethrowers for the combat rifle! Zoom out and switch off your night-vision, and toggle between auto and single fire, all without actually needing F4SE somehow???
