Battle-rifle modifications

One thing I have noticed about the in game battle rifle is that it lacks any modification attachments whatsoever which can seriously diminish its effectiveness. I request some modifications for the battle rifles that are inspired by real life variants of both the m1 garand and the m14 rifles.

 

Box Magazine:

Replaces the en bloc stripper clip with a BAR bottom feed box magazine. Increases ammo capacity from 8 to 20.

Below is the T20 variant of the M1. It has the 20 round magazine.

Synthetic Materials:

Replaces the wooden stock. Reduces weight from 9.5 by 4. Below is an M14 EBRhttp://www.gunnerairsoft.com/online/image/cache/data/gun/aeg-cm-032ebr-bk-01-1000x600.jpg

 

Battle-rifle foregrip

Adds a forward handgrip to the rifle. Reduces spread from 0.55 to 0.08.

Image below is an M1A1 which was an unsuccessful attempt at replacing the BAR.

Battle-rifle scope

Adds a scope for long range fire.

The box magazine would make it way too similar to the M14. Not to mention that part of the M1's charm is that stripper clip and that the "ping" sound when you're out of ammo.

Your picture link doesn't work. But if you want a M14 EBR, it already exists here on the Nexus:

Or this M39

Though if you're talking about a synthetic stock for the M1, here's a good example of one:

No comment on the foregrip.

The "M1C" already exists as a result of this mod:
http://newvegas.nexusmods.com/mods/38353

The M21 already exists here on the Nexus:

Add a foregrip to and remove the forward grip from the above M14 EBR mod and you'd get almost that pictured M14.

I'm pretty sure it's impossible to change your reload animation using a mod. (That is to say that if you were to make a box magazine for the Battle Rifle, you couldn't change the reload to being a mag switch, it'd still have to have the clip load animation with 8 rounds on it.)
