📋 About This Mod
A rebalance of all the major ballistic pistols (Not counting the Pipe *Pistol*) to be inline with mods and adding a bit extra. Also includes 2 weapons using vanilla assets.
Sensible Pistol Tweaks focuses on the 10mm, Pipe Revolver, . 44, and the Western Revolver. The deliverer is left alone as I more or less covered it in the Covert Burst Pistol Mod. In addition, this mod has 2 additional weapons using vanilla assets.
Many of these balance ideas were forked from T6M, Equo/Enesore, CodeBlackCrash, and Equalibrium just to name a few. My ideas are derivate.
10mm Pistol
This one probably has the most changes while not actually having much done to it. The pistol is now resized. The receiver being inspired by Jack's Better 10mm Pistol Mesh for an N99 look. All sights have been realigned to the best of my ability. This will affect alignment on mods that adds additional sights. That's just how it is.
Balancing wise, The 10mm pistol hits a bit harder, but it's full auto capabilities have been neutered. This is to encourage usage of a 10mm SMG. Whether it's C1ph3rr's, Pig's, Donskie's, etc.

Western Revolver
This one probably got the most changes. Something kinda jumped out at me that they intended this gun to be like a hunting revolver but due to DLCs having to stand on it’s own, they elected to just make it a powercrept . 44 pistol and ship it.
I reworked the mesh so that the thing can now shoot 45-70 with. Cylinder to fit the role. I also made the barrels much longer and reworked the gun entirely. This can be as vintage or as “tactical” as you want!
