How to change damage boost perk of a weapon?

[amokrun1]

There's a weapon that is augmented by the Rifleman perk but it's an automatic, so I would like to make it Commando. Cannot figure out how, using both xEdit and CK. Surely it must be quite straightforward. Any advice?

add the keyword WeaponTypeAutomatic to the base weapon (bad) or individual Mod_*_Receiver* omods (good)

I tried but it won't let me. When I try to add a new keyword in Weapons, it returns a "form is not unique" error. What is the correct way of adding a keyword to the base weapon?

EDIT: Never mind, I was selecting New instead of Add. That worked, thanks!
