I want to say that this thread should only be used, if you have question about the mod. (and really it should be straight forward, because it's a pretty simple mod), and it's clear none have. - Or if you have something specific to say about it. Take your general gun discussion somewhere else. Maybe a NRA forum or something.
For anyone looking to download this, it only changes the weapon name, not the mods, so it's not complete. All the weapon modifications in your inventory still say "assault rifle." Unfortunate.
Guys. They scrapped the Chinese Assault Rifle due to time constraints and renamed the Machine Gun to Assault Rifle. It has been proven and therefore the childish gun vs gun vs gun discussion should end already..
This mod merely puts the Machine Gun back where it belongs name wise.
Anyone who has a problem with it, don't use it.
Oh and to all of you gun freaks, they probably would have had the Chinese Assault Rifle fire 5.56mm anyway. So stop talking realism here. In the Fallout universe it can look like 1950-60s in the year 2077. It is an alternate/bizarro universe, so just get used to it!
So glad to see this mod. I hate seeing rifles, whether auto or semi-auto referred to as "assault rifles." I will spare the details on my reasoning (not a place for political stuff anyway ), but I am very grateful for this. Thank you!
The model is in a folder named Machine Gun and the Assault Rifle folder has 1 .nif that doesn't seem to be used. I would bet money that they were making an actual assault rifle and a machine gun but time was an issue so instead of introducing a new weapon(the machine gun) they renamed it to Assault Rifle because that wasn't completed yet.
*Edit, the model in the Assault Rifle folder is the Chinese assault rifle.
I'll be your first download it seems. I agree. I hated the fact that there are no normal looking assault rifles, like the G3 from Fallout 3, or the Carbine and Marksman rifle from Fallout NV.

Most of the rifles are actually carbines, since they use pistol rounds.
This is technically a light machine gun, or LMG.
