📋 About This Mod
Work Horse Pistol
I had nostalgia for BH's 1911 and so I did this project for fun. Was meant to be a personal thing but it ended up expanding to the point where I felt it was worth releasing. Thanks to Bludwolf and Neto to release this to the public. Before you ask, I re-exported the model again myself from Step 0. But credit where it's due, BH's 1911 is a reason why this mod exists now.
So with 1911s these days, they're very extensive and customizable to your heart's content. And that's fine! That being said, there's still a niche that isn't covered by many (as of recent). Just a pretty bog standard 1911 that covers all the bases. Here's my take on it.
