This mod introduces new weapon mounts and sights that are seamlessly compatible with the vanilla ones. The implementation aims to stay true to the original game experience, making it suitable for most servers. Hint: it's possible to configure weapons to spawn with mounts. You can find more about it in the guide link below.

[h1]Features[/h1][hr][/hr]

[h3]Mounts ...[/h3][list] [*] Universal Pistol Mount: allows the attachment of a flashlight along with various short-range sighting devices to pistols with a flashlight rail. [*] MRDS Mount: allows to attach the vanilla pistol red dot to any weapon with a rail. [*] Kochetov Mount (a.k.a. Mosin Mount): allows the use of western optics on weapons with the Kochetov rail system, e.g., Mosins and SKSs. [*] Warsaw Mount (a.k.a. AK Mount): allows the use of western optics on AK variants and other eastern weapons. It also accepts a pistol flashlight on the side rail so weapons like the "Vaiga" or the "Vikhr" can be employed in low light environments. [*] CR, Blaze and Tundra mounts: allows the use of western optics on the vanilla bolt and break action rifles. [/list]

[h3]... & Sights[/h3][list] [*] G43 Magnifier: it gives 3x magnification for unmagnified sights, e.g., magnifier + vanilla red dot. The magnification can be switched on and off without leaving the ADS position using the zoom in/out bindings (default is mouse wheel), providing a smooth experience. [*] Mark 3HD: same zoom levels and reticle as the trusty vanilla Hunting Scope, but with a rail base compatible with weapons and mounts that feature a rail (e.g., VS89, Mosin Mount, etc.). [*] SpecterDR 1.5-6x: dual purpose scope that allows its user to quickly flip between 1.5x and 6x magnification. It can receive the pistol red dot as an attachment and its reticle can be illuminated. [*] Pilad 4x32: fixed 4x scope with a rail base. [*] OKP-77: eastern red dot featuring a wide field of view and two reticle colors. [*] EXPS2: a popular holographic red dot. [/list]
