Adds in a pair of player craftable unique Cowboy Repeaters in the form of Mare's Legs
named Buttercup and Mabel,
as well as a non-unique Cowboy Repeater Mare's Leg in both .357 and .44.
Buttercup has a modified mesh, shortening the barrel, magazine tube, and stock,
replacing the handguard with an edited one from the Marksman Carbine,
a rail along the top, also from the Marksman Carbine, a front sight from the 12.7 SMG,
rear sight from the Brush Gun, laser from the 10mm Pistol, scope made from a combination of
La Longue Carabine's, the .44 Magnum's, and the Sniper Rifle's, and a few other details.
Mabel is mostly based off the non-unique Mare's Leg, adding a retextured peep-sight from the
Service Rifle, and a leather strap on her action, made from the bullet saddle from the
brush gun, and a shortened and retextured version of the scope from La Longue Carabine.
Custom textures this time around!
For Buttercup:
Mostly in the form of making everything black or dark,
as well as the engraved receiver, which is the Cowboy Repeater's Custom Action texture made black.
Minus the grip checkering from the Cowboy Repeater Maple Stock, the synthetic furniture is original.
For Mabel:
Case Hardened receiver mod, as well as custom wooden furniture, and multiple recolored parts
for brass accents. All recolor's color pulled from vanilla assets.
Also, a custom scope lens texture as La Long Carabine apparently doesn't actually have one.
Buttercup's rear Sight based on the Rossi R92 Triple Black.
Initial inspiration for Buttercup based on the Mare's Leg from Battlefield 4.
Mabel came later, after I decided I wanted a more cowboy like cowboy repeater, as apposed
to the more modern and tactical one Buttercup is.

Crafting:
Requires perk Advanced Gunsmithing
Material requirements are the same as building a Cowboy Repeater
in their mod, though with the .357 Rifle Barrel swapped out for
a .357 Pistol Barrel, as well as the .44 Rechamber requiring a .44 Pistol Barrel
instead too.
Version 1.1 adds recipes for the weapon mods. Yes, I forgot them in 1.0
---
Case Hardened receiver is made on a campfire (or stove if you use TTW Cooking Revolution by AloBautist)
to imply the heat required. Yes, I know it's unlikely you could get either of them to 1600 - 1750 °F.
It also makes use of your Science skill due to this being more chemical reaction based
than tinkering like the rest of this mod. You will need:
- Rifle Upper Receiver
- Lever-Action
- Abraxo Cleaner (for the sodium carbonate)
- Wine (for the ferrocyanide)
- Bottle of Water (to rinse it off afterwards)
The method here is called Cyaniding. Cyanide isn't in New Vegas, so we must
work with what we have. Substitution is the way of the wasteland.
