💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's a standalone weapon, it should appear in the world or your inventory — check the mod's README if you can't find it, but the description doesn't specify.
- If you're using a mod manager, just drop the archive in and activate it; load order shouldn't matter much for standalone weapons.
- Make sure you have the latest Fallout: New Vegas patch installed, as the mod is old and may rely on older game versions.
