The FG-42 artwork is by Joe-Louis and a really fantastic model.
If you're like me and only play Fallout then you might not have seen this weapon. It was developed in WW2 for German paratroopers. They needed a lightweight weapon that a soldier could be deployed with. They ending up creating an awesome gun and very ahead of it's time.
It is now a very rare and expensive gun so that is reflected in this mod. It's not added to the leveled lists and there is one in the Museum of Freedom in a Gun Case with a max level lock. The same as the Cryonator except the Gun Case isn't frozen. If you use any mods that edit this cell then you may have a conflict.
Mods
Standard receiver options
4 Mags (2 quick eject)
2 Barrels
Lots of scopes, Combat Scopes require See Through Scopes (ensure you have the behaviour file or your your scope will not be see through)
2 Muzzles
There is also a shorter stock but this is intended for 3rd person players and to avoid clipping.

I don't thank the Fallout modding community enough and there are so many people that have helped me and given me tips. Thank you to everyone that has helped me.
For this mod specifically, ColdFrontST has been a great help and support in putting this mod together, balancing, testing and screenshots. Ricoginger and Wanamingo have both shown me lots of great tips on animation and texturing. Prilladog has also helped with testing and Darkone259 for screenshots. Ajhakra for his great cubemaps.
ATTENTION
Thanks to well....Bugthesda being Bugthesda. The files for the FG-42 introduce a unfixable bug to the game that effects other guns. Many attempts where made to pin down this "Sight Drift" bug but we haven't been able to remedy the situation. HOWEVER this mod is still a fun and interesting addition to your game. The "Sight Drift" only happens on rare occasions and under rare circumstances. There is a way to fix the misalignment that you may encounter, Simply "Holster" then "Draw" your weapon again to fix the issue. We realize that this doesn't really effect VATS players but this is still good to know.
