About this mod
The mod adds two new, unique weapons to the game, which are inspired in the 1858 Remington Revolver, but are actually energy weapons which visibly use microfusion cells.

DESCRIPTION:
============
This is a new version of my previous mod, the "Old Western Energy Pistol".
The mod adds two new, unique, energy weapons to the game, called the "Magnum-Energy Pistol" and the "Magnum-Energy Carbine".
Given the futuristic-western setting of Fallout New Vegas, I always thought it would be fitting to have an old-western-looking "six shooter" energy weapon.
The pistol is inspired in the 19th century Remington Revolver, but it is actually an energy pistol which (visibly) uses microfusion cells.
The carbine is basically the same pistol but with a long barrel and a rifle stock.
The gun is quite large and heavy, very sturdy, and shoots an accurate and powerful "Magnum-Energy" beam that can set fire to a distant target.
The carbine shoots the same type of beam, but it is a little heavier and slower, has a longer range and is easier to aim (less strenght & skill requirements).
The mod provides no in-game background story as to the origins of the weapons, the actual technology behind them, or the reason for their current location (I leave that to the individual player's imagination).
You can find buth guns buried in a grave in the Goodsprings cemetery, between the one you get buried in and the one where you find the Goodsprings Snow Globe. (You'll need a shovel to dig the grave).

IMPORTANT NOTE:
===============
I made the pistol for my own personal use in the game, and decided to upload it because I thought someone else might enjoy it. The carbine version was made following a suggestion made to me during the first release.
All aspects of these weapons, both aesthetic and functional, were made with nothing but my own preferences in mind.
I gave the guns in-game stats that, to me, seem reasonable (reasonable within a game that features advanced fictional technology, that is).
However, I am fully aware that different players will have very different tastes for their gaming experiences, even within a single video game.
Therefore, If you like the weapons, but feel the stats aren't what you would have liked them to me, (overpowered, underpowered... or in any other way not according to your own ideas of "fun", "useful", "realistic", "game-balanced", etc.), rather than complain to me about it, please, feel free to open the .esp file in the New Vegas G.E.C.K. Editor, find and open the entries "WeapEnergyRevolver" and "WeapEnergyRevolverCarbine" in the weapons list, and edit any of the weapon's stats to suit your own criteria. In the same way, feel free to rename the weapons to whatever you feel is best, like "Ranger's Proton Blaster", "The Big Iron", or even "Betsy" if you like, and save any changes you make for your own, personal use.
Finally, please note that the only purpose of this plugin is to add the weapons to the game and make them available to the player. There are no quests to complete, or any other prerequisites for obtaining these unique weapons (other than digging a grave with a shovel). If anyone would like to make a mod where the guns can only be obtained after a certain search, quest and/or level, or as the result of workbench crafting or even where they are included in the leveled items lists and weilded, let's say, by elite NCR Rangers (or whatever), you have my permission to use this mod's resources as long as you leave my original files intact (save your changes under a different name) and you give me some credit for my work.
