This page lists all weapon mods in Fallout: New Vegas.

• The content is not described in full detail on this page. For details, please see the respective articles.
• For weapon mods in other Fallout games, please see "Weapon mod".
• For an overview of Fallout: New Vegas content, please refer to "Portal:Fallout: New Vegas."

Overview

Several of New Vegas's weapons can be modified with mods.

There are multiple weapon mods for some weapons, and a maximum of three weapon mods can be attached to any one weapon. Once any weapon mod is attached it is permanent, however there are multiple of each mod in the game, so be wise in what you want to attach. For example, while an extended magazine is almost always beneficial, a scope has pros and cons. It may increase maximum range, but makes it harder for close combat.

Mods are attached by having both the weapon and the mod in your inventory, then going to the weapons page on the Items tab within your PipBoy, highlighting the weapon you want to mod, and looking to the right of the info pane to see what button or key to use to open up the mod screen for that weapon. After you have selected a mod, the weapon name will have a + after it to show it has been improved. Modding a weapon also increases its value.

Unique weapons cannot be equipped with weapon mods. While unique guns usually have better base stats, Obsidian Entertainment introduced this inherent drawback to balance out unique and normal weapons and make the choice less of an obvious decision and more of a preference.
