📋 About This Mod
This mod will patch the Special Service Rifle from Long 15: NCR expansion to use kNVSE animations by Hitman!
Additionally, I have included an integration script to add the rifle into the Mojave. It can be found on NCR Ranger Veterans and can be purchased at the ZL Armament's Remastered store in Westside if it is installed. The integration can be disabled via INI if you don't wish to see it in the Mojave.
If you have CaliberZL installed, you can turn on 7. 62x51mm and have the Special Service Rifle use that. It's off by default but can be enabled in the INI.
The entire Long 15 Team! Thank you for bringing me on and allowing me to contribute to such an amazing project.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Nearly 100k downloads shows this patch is in high demand
- ESPless means it won't clutter your load order
- Adds Hitman-style animations to make the rifle feel more polished
⚠️ Cons
- Requires both Long 15 and kNVSE to be installed, so it's not standalone

For Fallout: New Vegas modders who use Long 15: NCR Expansion and want better animations for the Special Service Rifle. Also great if you're into Mojave immersion and want the rifle to feel like it belongs. Skip if you don't use those mods or prefer vanilla animations.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have the latest kNVSE and Long 15 installed before adding this patch.
- Since it's ESPless, you can just drop the files into your Data folder—no need to activate a plugin in your mod manager.
- If you're using a mod manager, let it handle the file placement to avoid overwriting issues.
