📋 About This Mod
SWEED'S SHORT SHOTGUNS
- This mod adds shortened/close quarters grips to all of the base game shotguns, as well as optional home-made cloth wraps that replace the leather wraps
- This mod includes an improved version of my Cut Down Winchester 1887 (Repeating Shotgun) Mod (better grip model + textures)
- There are also a couple optional files for shortened barrels for 2 of the shotguns
- Weapons remain fully customisable, (beside from stock carvings of course) and animations are functional
- NPCs can use these cut down variants
- I plan on adding a cut down elephant rifle as a part of this mod at some point, to recreate the look of Arthur's artwork cut down Colt Hammerless shotgun.
- Custom grips + wraps made by me
- Update: MaxLukSky has now optimised the mod so that is doesn't just stream all the files.
- Enjoy, - MrSweedgaming2
