Introduction
This is the classic M72 Gauss rifle produced by TheBigLidowski for the Fallout London project in 2020. It first appeared in Fallout 2.
Important reminder
You need to keep your Fallout 4 game up to date (version 1.10.162 or higher) or this mod won't work for you!
If you can't update your game now, you can try editing the .esp header in FO4Edit - changing the version in the HEDR section to 0.9500 - but there are no guarantees.
Contains
3 barrels - Default, Shielded and Overcharged (main attributes are hip fire and aim recoil, range, damage);
2 magazines - 8 and 20 round drum magazines;
4 scopes - iron sight, reflex sight, short sight, long sight (with customizable magnification levels);
3 stocks - handmade, hand recoil compensated, full version (classic wooden) (differences in hip fire and sight recoil, AP cost);
3 receiver improvements - Extra Capacitor (more damage, slower fire rate), Charge Booster (faster fire rate, less damage, auto-fire mode), Charge Optimizer (more damage, faster fire rate, but both are slightly less than the Focused Attribute Improvement mod);
1 muzzle - silencer (it's quite T H I C C, or astringent in Chinese context).
need
Fallout 4 version 1.10.162 or later, Nuka World DLC.
How to get
The gun will be distributed via a hierarchical list integration script to gun vendors such as Arturo or KL-E-0, various gunners, BoS soldiers, militia soldiers, railway agents, raider leaders.
Or you can generate it using the console as usual: get the id by typing help 4 m72 weap
and add it to your inventory by typing player.additem (the id you got)

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
- Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
- Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.
Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
