✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Simple and effective visual swap—if you're tired of the claw talismans, this gives you a clean rifle holster instead.
- Works for both coat and vest slots, so you can use it with most outfits.
- Decent community support with 79 endorsements and over 9k downloads.
⚠️ Cons
- Only affects two talismans—if you want more holster options or different styles, this won't cover it.
- Cosmetic only, so if you're looking for gameplay changes, this isn't for you.
- Potential compatibility issues with other mods that alter the same talisman models.
For RDR2 players who want a more classic western look and prefer the rifle holster over the default claw talismans. It's perfect for roleplayers or anyone doing a John Marston-style playthrough. Skip if you're not interested in cosmetic changes or if you use mods that already replace those talismans.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure to place the files in the correct game directory (usually lml or mods folder) to avoid conflicts.
- If you're using a mod manager, preview the holster in-game to see how it looks with your current outfit before committing.
- This mod replaces both talismans, so if you want to keep one of them, you'll need to edit the files or use a different mod.
