✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge community approval (1,871 endorsements) and over 74k downloads.
- Does exactly what it says—no forced scope, just clean iron sights.
- Lightweight and doesn't touch other gameplay systems.
⚠️ Cons
- Only affects sniper rifles—if you wanted scoped pistols or other weapons, this won't help.
- May conflict with other weapon overhaul mods that alter sniper rifle behaviors.
- No config options—if you want to toggle scope behavior per weapon, you're out of luck.
For Fallout 4 players who hate the forced scope view on sniper rifles and want to use iron sights or reflex sights instead. It's perfect for stealth builds or anyone who finds scopes clunky in close quarters. Skip if you're happy with scoped snipers or want more extensive weapon customization.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you're using a mod manager like Vortex, just download and install—no extra steps needed.
- Test with a vanilla sniper rifle first to see the change before adding other weapon mods.
- If you use weapon mods that change sniper rifle meshes, load this mod after them to ensure the effect applies.
