What this does
overhauls Calibers
9mm, .40 (10mm), .223, 5.56, .308, 7.62 and .50 cal
Gun Modifications are now realistic.
long Barrel increase accuracy and range
receivers add value or change caliber
grips add value, weight, and accuracy
Paint and Stickers are no longer locked. all available stickers(including ones previously only on legendary) are available for crafting.
some things were removed for realism (damage improving receivers and legendary variants)
Changes and improvements?
Removes the Legendary guns and the quest. makes all parts craftable using special components (High power magnet and fusion core for Gauss stuff, nuclear material for radium and lots of materials for the survival barrel)
parts are mix and match OTHER THAN Gauss stuff (Gauss barrel requires Gauss Receiver to appear. Head Cannon - cant power the barrel without the reciever)
Re balances the gun and makes some other changes i'm probably forgetting but everything has been done in the spirit of realism.
Why this does
I dislike the way guns work in vanilla fallout 4 and want to make my own ground up re balance.
the general idea is to get rid of the vanilla guns and then overhaul the
new guns to get rid of unrealistic mechanics like being able to increase
the amount of damage a gun does without changing its actual ammunition
type. you can get a bullet to be more accurate or even faster but your
not going to be able to make a .38 revolver have the knockdown of a .50
cal by changing the cylinders cosmetic design. that aspect of fallouts
gun modification and perk system has always bugged me.
The end goal will be a full overhaul for the Weapon, legendary effect, and perk
system of fallout 4 as well as anything else that needs to be tweaked to
keep the game difficulty in check and in balance but this will be a
very hard and very realistic overhaul when complete.
This will not be for everyone and thats okay.

Installation
Install F4NV Service Rifle Redux,
and Munitions (Munitions can and should be at the very top above all gun mods), Then this mod and enjoy
Note
Currently version 0.8.1
0.8 - initial release
0.8.1 - massive clean up and once over.
A. Changed the way paint works. The tan, Metal grey, and black are now standalone paint and not tied to the recievers
Note; due to this, for some reason all painted guns have a legendary star beside their name automatically.
Idk how to fix it yet. Please stand by and ignore or feel free to leave a tip in the comments.
B. changed a lot of mod item descriptions
C. Added .40 (10mm) and .308 receivers
D. attempted to tweak gun stats and firing rates (still needs more tweaking)
E. removed the "Advanced" receivers and re nammed "Forged" to "Calibrated"
0.8.2 - Fixed the Firing Rates finally
0.9 will include a new LL injection script thats not hacked together in 5 minuets
1.0 will be when the entire overhaul is finished
Special mega huge thanks to DeadPool2099 for making the original gun. I don't know why Bethesda left the iconic Service Rifle out of fallout 4 but one of the very first mods I installed back when I started playing FO4 was this mod.
