📋 About This Mod
--Optional version made with DegenerateDak's overhaul meshes now available.--
Requires his .ba2 archives, go here.
Just a quick idea I had this week. I don't usually do kitbashes, but this worked out alright.
Features
-Combat rifle parts resized and recut to work on the HMAR animations from Nuka World.
- CC Skins and See-Through-Scopes work with no patches.
-Three file options. One with vanilla stats (magazine visuals change based on rifle or pistol round), one that is all pistol rounds (. 38, . 45, and . 44 - an alternate version of my Combat Carbine) and one that is all rifle rounds (5mm, 5. 56, and . 308).
-Sounds now change with the high tier ammo-swap receiver.
-Alternate archive with Right Handed receiver.

Initial Release
November 13, 2021
My greatest apologies. Apparently there was an issue with the .esl-ification of the plugins and the tag had to be removed. Get the new 1. 1 version ASAP to (hopefully) avoid issues. They will now be regular .esp plugins. Creating a clean save first may also be a good idea.
Future Plans
Short Term - Patch for December's Child (just trying to figure out the best way to do this).
Long Term - A version using DegenerateDak's remesh, and some non-duplicate parts for the base version.
Compatibility
Incompatible with anything that changes the existing Combat Rifle or its parts.
Known issues
-None Currently
