📋 About This Mod
This is a script that allows you to use Laser Weapon Iron Sights without the included plugins.
The original Mod is still a hard requirement for the assets, just hide or delete the plugins.
An animation overhaul is required. New Vegas Animation Overhaul - Guns is the most recent, but it should work with any of hitman47101 or rockbiter68 animation packs.
So far, I have only patched the New Vegas weapons. I will include a TTW version at a later date (maybe when 3. 3. 3 releases and I get my load order set up again). I have been told that TTW already has Iron Sights on Energy Weapons.
The Laser Rifle Patch has minor compatibility for Jswayer forks, forwards some model paths for GRA Tri-beam Laser Rifle and Laser Rifle. "Shouldn't" cause any issues for those not using those mods.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Frees up a plugin slot, which is gold for load order hoarders
- Simple and does exactly what it says—no bloat
- Decent community trust with 224 endorsements
⚠️ Cons
- Doesn't actually add iron sights to energy weapons—it just saves a slot
- Requires another mod to provide the iron sights themselves
For Fallout 4 modders who already use a laser weapon iron sights mod and want to free up a plugin slot. Skip if you're looking for actual iron sight additions—this is just a slot saver.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have a separate mod that adds iron sights to laser weapons, since this mod doesn't do that.
- Place this mod after your iron sights mod in your load order to ensure the slot removal works.
- Check your plugin count in your mod manager to confirm the slot is freed.
