Fallout 4 Modern Firearms
In this guide, we’re going to show you some of the best Weapon mods for Fallout 4 on the Xbox One & Xbox One X! Bethesda games are well known for their modding scenes, as Fallout & Skyrim always take the top spots for number of mods in a video game.
In this post, we won’t just be showing new weapons, but some modifications that change the way the weapons work too, or amplify the experience.
Aug 12, 2017 Functions such as suppressors on/off, fire mode, scope zoom/type and underbarrel equipment are all switchable in gameplay by use of the 'Fallout 4 Hotkeys' mod by Registrator2000, negating the need to carry more than one of any weapon type. All of it is integrated into the level lists. As the file is way too large for the Lovers Lab server. For Fallout 4 on the Xbox One, a GameFAQs message board topic titled 'Anyway to use the secondary sight on a gun from the modern firearms mod?'

See through scopes
See through scopes mod download
Whilst this mod doesn’t add any weapons to Fallout 4, it does add some new scopes, mainly short and medium range scopes that you can see through. They act like iron sights, and the reticle of the scopes can be customised in game. The scopes work at 2.5x, 4x and 8x magnification and work with most of the vanilla weapons.
Holstered Weapons
Holstered Weapons mod download
This mod adds Holstered Weapons to both male and female characters in Fallout 4, allowing you to carry weapons on your back to add a bit more immersion and realism. Unfortunately, they only work with specific weapons and have to crafted individually at a Chemistry Workstation, giving a small armor bonus when equipped.
Crossbows of the Commonwealth
Crossbows of the Commonwealth mod download
Instead of adding new types of guns, this mod adds a whole new weapon type, the Crossbow. They have a lot of customisation, from scopes to bolts. Use fire bolts or armor piercing, attach a bayonet or even attach a bayonet to the bow. It’s one of the best Weapon mods available in Fallout 4 for sure, and feels the most complete.
Modern Firearms

One of the best weapon mods for Fallout 4 on the Xbox One would have to be Modern Firearms (Tactical edition). It adds a whole load of new weapons to the game, which will also be added to loot, enemies and vendors in the Commonwealth. All the weapons are modelled very nicely and have realistic looking textures!
