Changing muzzle and sight mods on the fly

[Demonbane775]

I absolutely adore the gun mods system in Fallout 4. But coming over from New Vegas, playing as a sniper, there's something very missing.

 

Why can't I swap out scopes and muzzle attachments on the fly?

 

There's times when my recon scope doesn't cut it and I want a night vision scope. But the night vision scope is only useful under very specific circumstances (A: at long range, B: at night) as it'll blind the f*#@ out of you during the day (As it should).

 

Similarly, there's times I'd like a silencer on my gun. But again, there's only a specific set of circumstances under which a silencer is useful. Most of the time I'll want a straight compensator so I can use my rifle in open combat without as much of a hit to accuracy.

 

In New Vegas, I could swap out gun mods to fit the situation. In Fallout 4, if I wanted to truly be prepared for any situation at any time, I'd have to carry around MULTIPLE rifles with different mods on them to suit the situation. Which is ridiculous, and defeats the entire reason for gun attachments.

 

If this is even possible to achieve, could there be a mod menu for muzzle and sight mods in the pip-boy like there was in New Vegas? Not just for the hunting/sniper rifle, but for all the guns in the game.

Note that I'm not asking to swap out ALL mods on the fly, as that would be a little silly. But if that's the best that can be accomplished without the CK...

But yes, being able to use different size magazines would also be nice. SOmething else that would be great but probably can't happen without the GECK is being able to swap from semi to full auto on guns like the Assault Rifle with a button press instead of it being two different modifications to the gun. Accuracy and precision when you need it, stopping power when you need it. JUST LIKE A REAL LIFE ASSAULT RIFLE.

Just bumping to see if I can get confirmation on if making something like this is even possible without the CK.
