📋 About This Mod

You can find a customized page for the Duke (Colt) M1911 at the SD gunsmith, and you can then wield it on your adventures. Now with two new features  :

-Can! be customized (at the gunsmith, the M1911 will now show)

-Can! be used by PEDs

USEFUL INSTALLATION KNOWLEDGE

First, using your prefered rar extractor (zip or winrar) extract the folder into your desktop. Open it and from there, follow the instructions on the download page.

-4 Engravings for the gun

-Four different metals customization zone (Sight is the barrel and Trigger covers trigger and hammer)

-Two different barrel models

-Two different sights models (still not fp friendly because nothing makes sense)

-Cool grip ? I think it's pretty cool ngl

-Now compatible with dual wield

-A custom catalog page

-Of course, the 1911 itself is the main feature

Please disregard the fact that none of the pictures appear to be lacking a hammer, this was just a result of me not wanting/bothering to redo all the pictures after realizing I forgot to add it back. Also reminder that the 1899 is locked until chapter 4 iirc.

The mod will not get weapon power editing at some point.

I hope you enjoy.
