This mod adds a perk that lessens equip time, quickens reloads, and increases rate of fire for all applicable Cowboy weapons!

I found that the cowboy related weapons near the endgame were poor in performance in comparison to all of the other guns that the game gives you.

Well with this mod, worry no more! If you have the Cowboy perk on your character, and you are level 12 and have 7 agility, you can get a cool perk that buffs cowboy related weapons!

I felt inspired to do this mod because cowboys in fiction are notorious for their dexterity and agility with firearms operated in single action and lever action.

The specifics of the perk:

Equipping cowboy weapons is 75% faster
Firing cowboy weapons is 75% faster
Reloading cowboy weapons is 75% faster.

Note: DPS in-game will not actually change in the game's pipboy menu, but physically it does.

Why such high numbers? I tuned the weapons to reach an acceptable amount of speed, comparable to Red Dead Redemption, for the weapons to be viable in the endgame without doing the boring thing of just boosting damage like the Cowboy perk does already. I also wanted to replicate aforementioned dexterity, and these numbers seem close to what I want, while also being endgame viable.

Some justification is that the perk requirement of having 7 agility means you have to dedicate 2 of the 5 special points you get to spend in the beginning of the game to be able to get this benefit. And you're spending those precious perk points that you only get 25 of anyway!
