Colt 6520 10mm Pistol Replacer
This is a reupload of my mod "Mysterious Weapon Replacers — Colt 6520" from 2018. It replaces (model swaps) the vanilla 10mm pistol with the Colt 6520, a lovely pistol by Ryss5an, FX0x01, and Navaro that honestly deserves more love.
I'm going to be honest. I don't like Fallout 4's 10mm pistol, and I can't imagine what Bethesda was thinking when they made this... thing... I love the 10mm Auto round and its history, but good lord this thing is not only ugly and poorly textured, it's comically oversized.
This is the first of several old mods I'm reuploading, which I had previously hosted on the Nexus around 2018. I also hope to make entirely new mods again, after I've gotten used to Xedit and Fallout 4 again. It's... been awhile since I was last able to play.

FAQ
Q: 'What does the mod do?'
A: It replaces (model swaps) all 10mm pistols in Fallout 4 with the Colt 6520. This includes Legendaries, Uniques, and Piper's companion weapon.
Q: 'Do I need to start a new game?'
A: No. Even if you are literally holding a 10mm pistol in your save, it will magically transform! No compatibility issues whatsoever.
Q: 'How different are the stats?'
A: Mostly identical to vanilla, but with a small buff to damage. 10mm Auto is a powerful round, and I believe it should be viable from early to late game.
Q: 'Why make this?'
A: Because the default 10mm pistol is ugly and stupid. Why is this 'pistol' as big as a bolter, but hits like a wet noodle?
Q: 'Why use this gun mod in particular?'
A: I love this gun. It's realistically sized and over-engineered in a way that is just totally Fallout. The parts look like they're milled from solid blocks of steel, and like you could drop this thing off the top of Mass Fusion, and it'd still work.
Q: 'Why do so many attachments for this gun look similar?'
A: I'm not a modeller, so an SREP-style expansion of part models is not possible. This is also why the Recon Scope became a normal scope.
Q: 'I don't like this?'
A: Then don't download it, and close the tab in your browser. There are several other 10mm replacers. Glock, Browning Hi-Power, etc.
Q: 'Why did you hide your mods back in 2018?'
A: Because for two years I was without a computer, and I had no way to support my mods. Sorry about that.
Q: 'What about the AWKCR version?'
A: Sorry, but I haven't reinstalled Armor Keywords. And honestly, those versions didn't seem popular?
