📋 About This Mod
Take the esp, and the meshes and textures folders and move them to C\\programs\\steam\\steamapps\\common\\fallout new vegas\\data if you did it right it will ask if you want to overide say yes. the gun and schematic for the ammo are behind the bar at the prospector saloon. remember to keep the schematic or you cant make the ammo. Ya only get one shot, it reloads slow, but holy cow this sucker packs a whallop. If ya kill something with a head shot their head explodes, everytime, guarenteed. I\'m not kidding its flagged that way. Big thanks to Zepplin for the nif help Aftershock_81 for the action nif
