📋 About This Mod
Adds XM16 from Black Ops Cold War to the game with some attachments, custom sounds, leveled list and perk integration. In addition to having two unique variants, there is an XM177 carbine that has its own unique variant as well. Default versions of the XM16 and XM177 can be found in the wastes on enemies and merchants as well.
The first XM16 unique, the one with jungle tape and the ace card on its stock can be found in the NCR Ranger safehouse on a shelf while a as of now unusuable heatshield and M203 variant dubbed 'My Little Friend' can be found in the Lucky 38 suite next to the bed. The XM177's unique variant called the Commando can be found where all the ammo is located inside the Nellis Array Generator room, that one quest with the ants.
Statwise the weapons are comparative to the Service Rifle (XM16) and Assault Carbine (XM177) respectively. Attachment wise the weapons come with a scope (equip via workbench), a 30rnd extended magazine, suppressor and laser sight. Buy from vendors like the Gunrunners.
Additionally there's some animations by Rockbiter and Johnsonn bundled with the mod so kNVSE and all of its requirements will be necessary. Honest Hearts is another hard requirement with the weapons injected into the Grunt perk.
