A shotgun that is equipped and activated like a grenade, the Trench Pistol is a true sidearm for those who prefer to solve problems at range but still want an answer to those that get too close.
Features
New Shotgun: The Trench Pistol is equipped in the Grenade Slot and acts as a quick close range secondary weapon that can be fired alongside any primary weapon.
<> Also, the Plugin is a .esp Flagged as an esl. so, it won't take up a slot in your load order. <>
Tips and Tricks
Note: Since I play with a Controller some of these may not work exactly the same on M+KB.

Features
New Shotgun: The Trench Pistol is equipped in the Grenade Slot and acts as a quick close range secondary weapon that can be fired alongside any primary weapon.
- While this sidearm boasts a very high base damage of 210 (split evenly between 21 projectiles); its low range, steep damage falloff outside that range, and wide pellet spread limits its effective usage beyond close range engagements.
- Treated as a Pistol and therefore its damage is increased by the Gunslinger Perk.
- A Custom Aim Model gives the pistol a unique feel compared to vanilla shotguns. More details in the Tips and Tricks section.
- Custom HD "Freedom" texture inspired by the unique weapon skin for the Flare Gun from Fallout 76.
- Crafting available in the Chem Station. Recipe is low cost to make and is similar to ECO Redux's requirements for the Flare Gun plus some shotgun shells.
- Optional Leveled List injection via the RobCo Patcher distributing the weapon as a Frag Grenade Peer and is also purchasable in Gun shops.
- Mainly functions as a sidearm that you can have equipped alongside a main weapon. Uses vanilla throwing animations when fired, eventually I might make custom animations.
- Custom HD Magazine Cover
- New perk that enhances your proficiency with Shotguns; granting you bonus damage with those weapons at point-blank range equal to 3% per point of Endurance. (Range is 256 units or approx. 7-9 feet/3-4 meters.)
- Magazine can be found as a Small Rare/Unique Item Drop or as a non-rare drop from Lunchboxes. Robco Patcher required for magazine to spawn, for now. If not running Robco Patcher, the magazine can be spawned using console commands.
- After collecting the magazine, you will be able to craft a special "Dragon's Breath" modification that adds burning damage that can pierce through soft targets.
<> Also, the Plugin is a .esp Flagged as an esl. so, it won't take up a slot in your load order. <>
Tips and Tricks
Note: Since I play with a Controller some of these may not work exactly the same on M+KB.
- While you cannot ADS (sighted aiming) due the Trench Pistol being equipped and activated like a grenade, you can crouch to significantly reduce the pellet spread. [Approx. 30%]
- Works best in close quarters and works well as a backup to a precision weapon.
- You can "prep" a shot from the Trench Pistol by holding the grenade button/key. The weapon won't fire or initiate the animation to use it until you release button. Meaning, you can hold down the key and continue firing your main weapon normally until something gets close. Once that happens, release the button for a quick close range shot. <<<This is probably the most useful tip<<<<
- Since it is activated like a grenade the center of the spread is offset to the left of your crosshair. Flashlight mods offset the beam to your left align with the spread nicely.
- Against smarter enemies that like to flank or that pay attention to what weapon you are using, firing the Trench Pistol can sometimes make them change tactics or back off.
- Endorse if you enjoy the mod.
- Comment tips and tricks you have found and I will add them to the list.
