Changelogs
This mod adds a non-unique version of A Light Shining In Darkness with a new texture and no special engravings nor a snakeskin grip. The new pistol may be found in the Sierra Madre (though less commonly than the vanilla Police Pistol). .45 ammunition is now found in a few places in the Sierra Madre, and the player can find a new Sierra Madre Vending Machine Code that unlocks the ability to purchase .45 ammunition, though at a higher price than .357 Magnum.

The pistol has less damage and a higher spread than the regular old .45 Auto Pistol, but its higher fire rate means that it still has a DPS of about 100. It has a lower critical chance, value, and item health than A Light Shining In Darkness, though it retains the same skill/strength requirements.

The weapon is called the Detective Pistol, since the model is similar to the Colt New Agent. I've also created optional plugins that rename the vanilla Police Pistol to Police Revolver in order to be more consistent with the naming scheme for handguns.

REQUIREMENTS
Honest Hearts and Dead Money are required. Gun Runners' Arsenal is additionally required for any of the Optional Files.

KNOWN ISSUES
None known. Please report anything you find in the comments.

CONFLICTS
This mod could conflict with anything that alters the various cells where items are placed in Dead Money. The (non-NVSE) miscellaneous file that renames the Police Pistol will conflict with anything that alters the Police Pistol.

OPTIONAL FILES
Versions are available that fully integrate my mod, New Unique .45 Auto Pistol (if downloading one of these Optional Files, you will not need to download anything from that mod, though you can still download the alternate model for suppressed versions only and alternate texture in its Optional Files). This is done because of a conflict with the Way of the Canaanite perk, which is unfortunately not set up to use a form list. This is a temporary perk and thus may be seen as a minor issue, but I wanted to cover all my bases.

I've also put a couple of plugins in Miscellaneous Files which rename the Police Pistol to Police Revolver, to be more consistent with the game's naming scheme for handguns. The one marked "NVSE" requires New Vegas Script Extender (NVSE).

INSTALLATION
Only download ONE of the five main/optional files, depending on your preference. Only download ONE of the two miscellaneous files, if you want one of them (see Optional Files above). Put the contents of the mod folder(s) (the folder with the .esp inside of it) into your Data folder, or use a mod manager. To uninstall, delete the mod's files (.esp, mesh, and textures) or uninstall using a mod manager.

ADDENDUM
I have made a lot of mods. Because I like to create different versions to give the user plenty of options, it's extremely difficult for me to bundle my mods together. I recommend getting the FNV Mod Limit Fix by iranrmrf, or try using a tool like Merge Plugins by Mator.
