Mod Request: Break down weapons into sperate mods

[theBusStop]

Just like the title says, I'd like to be able to break down weapons into their separate weapon mods.

 

So if you find for example a 50.cal sniper rifle and you want to take that 50.cal receiver and put it on your legendary Instigating hunting rifle you don't first have to waste recourses creating a standard receiver for the 50.cal sniper rifle, you can just break it down into it's separate mods and apply the 50.cal on your legendary.

 

I don't know if something like this would even be possible (if not, bummer, but I wil understand) but if so, I would really apreciate it if a modder would take a crack at it

I've always thought it was odd you had to replace a mod with another mod. I do think this mod would have to completely break the weapon down, though. I doubt the game has a way of managing an incomplete item in inventory (i.e., a rifle with no barrel, pistol with no grip, etc.).

Yeah, that was what I was getting at, so 10mm pistol will be turned into a 10mm reciever mod, a 10mm barrel mod, a 10mm magazine mod, etc.

 

Although, fun fact, the game actually is able to handle an incomplete item in your invetory. I know this because my mods once screwed up and the stock of my sniper rifle disapeared so I ended up with only a reciever and a scope in my hands and I had to remake to stock, barrel and magazine (it staill was able to shoot and everything)
