📋 About This Mod
This mod contains a full recreation from scratch of BOS Recon Armor & Crusader’s Pistol, originallyseen in Fallout76, brought to you by your new favorite caffeine addict. ☕
Step into the Mojave like a true Brotherhood operative! The Recon Armor has been painstakingly rebuilt from the ground up. Every plate, strap, and buckle hand-crafted for Fallout: New Vegas.
Whether you’re sneaking through Raider's territory or making a grand entrance to the Strip, this armor makes sure you do it in style.
And because every hero needs a trusty sidearm, the Crusader’s Pistol joins the fray, converted from Fallout 4's mod by Donskie62. This sleek, powerful, and modular gun is ready for blasting!
The gun features custom animations created by Hitman & Rockbiter68!
Both the Crusader’s Pistol and BOS Recon Armor are fully integrated with the base Fallout: New Vegas. Once you’ve completed the Brotherhood of Steel’s main storyline, you’ll unlock the option to purchase them from the Brotherhood of Steel Quartermaster.
After finishing Eyesight to the Blind, pay a visit to Knight Torres to get your hands on this iconic gear!
A small quest with a marker has been added to lead you to her location!

Since Fallout: New Vegas uses a completely different modification system than Fallout 76 & Fallout 4, the Crusader’s Pistol has been carefully adapted for FNV.
To keep things balanced and simple, it comes with three custom mods:

All of which can also be bought from Knight Torres after finishing the storyline.-
[]Hitman & Rockbiter68 for their amazing 12. 7mm animations that I have repurposed to be used with Crusader's Gun
[]Donskie62 for allowing me to use his amazing assets made for Fallout 4 Crusader's Gun mod. This helped me tremendously as I did not need to recreate the gun from scratch, so massive thanks to you, buddy!
[]Bethesda for their original design. Specifically, Joon Choi!
- My wife for being an emotional support.
