📋 About This Mod
+++DESCRIPTION+++
This mod adds in a completely newly modeled Combat Shotgun from Fallout 3 into the game. It comes with unique static and sound entries (and a custom sound!), as well as having it added to the appropriate perk lists, repair lists and weapon lists. While it doesn't have modifications, a second full automatic variant has been included for fun and also by demand. This may require WAR (Weapon Animation Replacer) and an optional ironsights patch for WAR users can be found in the archive.
It can be found on Doc Mitchell's stove.
+++COMPATIBILITY+++
This mod should not conflict with any other mod.
+++KNOWN ISSUES AND NOTES+++
Use of WAR (Weapon Animation Replacers) is probably necessary for the full auto variant. You can find it here: http://newvegas.nexusmods.com/mods/38527
+++INSTALLATION+++
Copy/extract the archive into your Data folder and check the esp off in your data loader.
+++UNINSTALLATION+++
Remove the contents of the archive from your Data folder.
+++Credits+++

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 4,730 endorsements and nearly 100k downloads—clearly a trusted weapon mod.
- Scratch-made model means it's not a simple retexture; you get a unique, high-quality asset.
- Faithful to the Fallout 3 design, so it fits perfectly for players who miss that classic look.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2012—may have compatibility issues with newer game versions or DLCs.
- Only adds one weapon; if you're looking for a full weapon pack, this won't cover that.
For Fallout players who want a nostalgic, well-crafted shotgun that mirrors the Fallout 3 classic. Perfect for those who appreciate high-quality standalone weapon mods and don't mind a bit of old-school modding. Skip if you need modern features or a comprehensive weapon overhaul.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since the mod is from 2012, check if your game version is compatible—older mods sometimes need manual load order tweaks.
- Use a mod manager like Nexus Mod Manager or Mod Organizer 2 to easily install and uninstall without messing up your data folder.
- Look for the weapon in the world or via console commands; the description doesn't specify, so explore or use 'help combat shotgun' in the console.
