📋 About This Mod

Makes the shotguns holster on the hip like pistols do. Plays the correct holstering animation and everything. Looks kind of silly with the Ruzad, since it stays pretty big when holstered, so I put that one in an optional download. You need both files if you want all of the shotguns covered.

INSTALLATION

Use Eham Frosty Mod Manager:
