M1918 T-Gewehr/Explosive Rifle from RDR

[ColinBT1994]

This should be familiar to anyone thats played the Red Dead Redemption Undead Nightmare DLC. The Explosive Rifle in the game is based on the Mauser 1918 T-Gewehr, which fired the renowned 13.2mm round, the first bullet designed solely for armor penetration. I was wondering if anybody could create the T-Gewehr as a .50MG rifle so one could use the explosive rounds with it. It's a pretty big rifle, I imagine maybe just a bit smaller than the Anti-Materiel Rifle, and I think it would make a badass weapon for cowboy-type characters that want something a little different. For maximum Red Dead-ness, integration into the Cowboy perk list would be sweet as well. If someone really wanted to go all-in on the project I had an idea that, because I'm godawful with the GECK, I couldn't pull off myself: if the player has the Wild Wasteland trait, Wolfhorn Ranch is transformed. All of the plant life is dead, and the ranch is occupied by a few ghouls. In the house, the player finds a ghoulified John Marston carrying the coveted Explosive Rifle. I thought it would be a neat interaction that blends seamlessly into the vanilla game and would really appreciate it if a talented modder could make it happen for me and all of the other RDR fans out there!

 

 

 

P.S. - I know there is a mod on the Nexus that claims to add "John Marston's Explosive Rifle", but it's just a hunting rifle. And that's no fun.
