So here it is, Armed to the Teeth - New Vegas - Redux. No compatibility patches needed. No more rigged weapon meshes. No biped slots used. Out of the box compatibility with all weapons. Any weapon, in any of four locations on the player character, with an integrated visible holster system. All done through the power of xNVSE, kNVSE, Johnny Guitar and JIP. Integrated support for some of the most popular mods on the Nexus. Safe, clean scripting that won't break your save game or cause save bloat. Here's what Armed to the Teeth-Redux can do:
[] Allows you to display/holster up to 4 weapons you have hotkeyed in your inventory on your player character, no matter what weapon you have equipped currently.
[] Unequipped weapons can be holstered in any of four positions - Left Shoulder, Right Shoulder, Left Hip, and Right Hip.
[] Holstered weapons will be equipped and unequipped from their assigned holster positions, with custom equip and unequip animations included in the mod.
[] All weapons from all mods are supported out of the box, no compatibility patches needed.
[] All in game modifications for weapons (eg. Scope for Hunting Rifle, etc.) will show up on holstered weapons.
[] Full support for vanilla Power Armor animations/holster positions.
[] New Backpack holster positions & animations. Left and right shoulder weapons will now be holsterd to the sides of backpacks, as shown in the screenshots section. This also occurs for holstered weapons when you have a weapon with a backpack (eg. the Minigun, Gatling Laser, Shishkebab, etc.) equipped.
[] Option to display a grenade/throwable weapon. The throwable can be placed on your left or right hip, chosen via MCM.
[] The Shishkebab displays a custom backpack when you equip it in the base game. Armed to the Teeth takes this a step further - if you have the Shishkebab selected as a weapon to be holstered its backpack will also show up on your player character even when you don't have the Shishkebab equipped. This feature has also been added to the Shishkebab's unique variant, Gehenna.
[] Optional lowered posit

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge community trust with 4,992 endorsements and over 300k downloads.
- No compatibility patches needed — works with most setups out of the box.
- Visible holsters add real immersion, not just invisible storage.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in January 2022 — may be outdated for the latest game version.
- Only supports up to 4 weapons; if you want more, you're out of luck.
For roleplayers and immersion seekers who want to see their gear on their character. Also great for players who carry multiple weapons and want quick access without menu juggling. Skip if you prefer minimal visual clutter or only use one weapon.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since no compatibility patches are needed, just drop the files into your Data folder or use your mod manager's install function.
- Check if the mod requires a specific game version — if you're on a newer patch, test it early to avoid conflicts.
- If you use other body or armor mods, test holster placement to ensure they don't clip with your gear.
