Jeez, I thought animation demonstrated in the video demo is considered as a bug. I had a Pump-Action Shotgun mod by The6thMessenger which had this animation in power armor and then I thought it was a bug too, but... yeah
This is a million times better, I do wonder though, could you do this for the Mossberg 500 too? Because the Mossberg also used the bolt action animation.
Great idea and I am glad that finally someone is noticing that most of mod authors aren't making 3rd person PA animations for their weapon Mods.
But I got another idea for you to solve all 3rd person PA pump action weapons animation issues that there is actually a fine working pump action shotgun MOD that does contain 3rd person PA animations, from pumping to reloading, everything that's related with animations.
It's called Krait-6712, made by Scail, I love his Mods, all of his Mods contain 3rd person PA animations
So as long as you know how to use whatever BA2 or Archive 2, you can extract it's aniamtions to overwrite those ones that got no 3rd person PA animations, and it also contains BCR support, the only little problem is that Krait-6712 contains only 4,6 and 9(or maybe 8) rounds animations so I picked the 4 rounds one animation and it reloads only 4 rounds maximum at once, but since BCR is working you can always reload one more, but this doesn't break the immersion to me.

Edit: I was also able to get this working for the China Lake/Holorifle mod and detail it better there

I'll look into it and see if it can work, and if it does, I'll ask Scail for permission to use his animations.
