📋 About This Mod
Brush Gun is one of my favorite weapons in New Vegas, but I never liked the all-white receiver of the medicine stick, it deserved more attention. So, inspired by Christopher Wallace's Weapon Enhancement Pack, I made a reimagined version of the weapon, with gold and light metal parts, and unique decals.
