📋 About This Mod
This is the New Vegas edition of the American Hammer. Uses 9mm and repaired with 9mm pistols. Also in game ironsight compatable. It is located in a safe in the Prospectors Saloon behind the bar. The Gun is in Trudy`s Safe. It is at `Very Hard` lock level and it will take a hit on your Karma as it`s not your safe or Gun. Also good idea, unless Trudy is dead in your game, to make sure she isn\'t around to see you open the safe and take the gun. ******************************************************** INSTALLATION ***************************************************** Install using FOMM (recommended) or unpack archive\'s content in ..\\fallout new vegas\\Data\\,. ***************************************************** credits: ******************************************************** Ahztek666 for the Beretta M92 Mesh Me with my humble texture work 0_o NOTE: If anyone wishes to use this mod, in parts or in whole, in other mods or make conversions please PM for permission of use.

✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 735 endorsements and 15k downloads — clearly a lot of people dig it.
- Brings a classic FO3 weapon to New Vegas, perfect for nostalgia trips.
- Compact size might mean easier to carry or faster swing — either way, it's a neat twist.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2010 — might have compatibility issues with newer game versions or mods.
- Only a compact variant — if you wanted the full-size hammer, this isn't it.

💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's a weapon mod, make sure to place the files in your Data folder and enable the .esp in the launcher.
- If you're using a mod manager like FOMM or Vortex, just install the archive and activate it — easy.
- Check if the mod requires the original FO3 assets — if so, you might need to have FO3 installed or extract the meshes.
