💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's a simple toggle mod, make sure to assign a hotkey in the mod's settings if it uses one, or check the mod's in-game holotape for configuration.
- Test the toggle with different revolvers to see how it affects accuracy and fire rate—fanning is usually less accurate but faster.
- If you're using other weapon mods, load this one after them to ensure the toggle applies correctly.
