Thomas Greer (aka 'Dalton Fury') seen on the right. He also has a Knight's Armament RIS Forend from Delta M4A1 packages installed on his rifle.

Also interesting to note the rifles both operators have in this photo aren't the usual Colt Model 723's Delta was known for using, but instead are Olympic Arms CAR-AR Rifles that have been retrofitted for simunitions use (as indicated by the clear magazines and blue components). Delta likely only procured these for training use and were never intended for combat.

Above: Olympic Arms CAR-AR. Note the Rapidex rear sight windage knob, shorter barrel, and XM177-style faux moderator consistent with the rifles in the photo.

The polymer XM177-style buttstocks could also on occasion be seen on some of Delta's early M4A1 rifles, though I'm not sure why operators would make the choice to swap them out as the Colt N1 Fiberlite stocks were much higher quality, and the CAR-AR stocks were also only sized for commercial buffer tubes, meaning they would fit sloppy on the buffer tubes of M4A1's.

Above: Members of C-Squadron and their early M4A1 Carbines with custom Armalite Fiberglass FF Tube Handguards, c.1996-1998. The operator at left has an Olympic Arms CAR-AR Stock on his rifle, as indicated by the lack of two 'ribs' along the body of the tube.

As a final note, it appears both men are wearing the AWS Protective Vest (aka 'Direct Action Trauma Body Armor'), which while around in the late 90's, Delta did not adopt until at least 2000.

Between 1996-1999 the unit would have been using the Point Blank PBPV and leftover supplies of T.G. Faust NATO SF Body Armor from the 1980's.

This detail dates the photo OP posted to at least the early 2000's and not the mid-90's.

Oh hey I built two more ARs while nobody was paying attention

I wanted a basic-ass M4gery, and I had one last MARS-L lower I hadn't used yet, so I decided to build one.

Meanwhile I saw BCM had blemished 14.5 SOCOM uppers on sale for Black Friday with free BCGs included, so I thought fuck it and ordered one. Then I put it on my Ballistic Advantage lower I had layin' around, and now I also have a right handed M4gery in case I go shooting with someone and they need to borrow one.

...I'd like for that someone to be a nice pretty lady who shares one or more of my interests and thinks shooting might be a fun hobby to get into, but if I'm being realistic I'll probably just end up letting my brother-in-law or my little sister shoot it and nobody else because I'm such a socially awkward sack of shit.

I should get a real a1 type upper to fix my A1ish and turn my C7 upper into a CAR15 type rifle.

*This upper is from Tony's Customs and is somewhat of a placeholder while I'm waiting to receive a more clone-correct one with Colt proofmarks and no forge marking.

*Technically, my lower is a Colt Match Target lower and not a true Commercial M16A2, but it still has the correct A2 buffer tower profile and the Redi-Mag hides all sins.

Setup accurate for the 1993-1996 period.

Tacticool gets Falloutified

Overhauling the most popular MK18 on the market. (Introduction n' first chapter)

Introduction

In 2020, Hyper and his crew releases the MK18 CQBR. A step up from the Service Rifle Archetype compared to the RU556 and F4NV's Service Rifle with a wide variety of custom works, animations, and high-quality-ness- albeit on the tacticool side, it was a very content rich alternative that most people would put on in their modernized playthroughs.

In the course of the MK18's History, a Mod Author named Sailent Phantom would go on to make Armory Projects for various weapons. A compilation of more attachments and aftermarket parts for various weapons, one being the MCX Series of Rifles, and the MK18. Which became so popular infact, that last year, Phantom releases the MK18 1000 Year Empire. The Definitive Edition of the MK18 Series, that provides you with at least a significant amount of high quality attachments and extras to effectively extend the MK18 into a M4/M16/AR15 Platform Weapon Mod.

Also in that same course, there has been various overhaul to the various AR15/Service Platforms for some time- but apart from the Attachment Overhaul not a lot aiming for the vanillafied experience of the now near most modular rifle in the Nexus Market. Today will be the day that is changed.

As now, I will be showing the process of how I overhauled the MK18 to become a effectively better, yet expansive Assault Rifle Replacer and then some.

1.) Getting Started

So the first steps basically involves additional polish work. And you're probably asking yourself what kind of polish work.

In the original MK18 Mod with the 1000 Year Empire Addon, there's additional receiver variants that the MK18 includes on top of what is already in there.

The Default MK18/M4/M16A4 Platform

The Retro M16A2/CAR15 Platform

The "MEGA-15" Platform [designed by MEGA Arms]

The PUNISHER-15 Platform [MEGA Arms but with Punisher themed decorations]

and the Noveske Platform [By Noveske Rifleworks]

The upside is that there is a variety of receiver options that help with asthetic needs.

The downside is that it is broad. Way too broad.

All Receivers fall under the category of one weapon. One group- with the small exception of the PUNISHER-15, You essentially had the opportunity to swap any receiver however you see fit. Which leads to some funny, yet sometimes painfully cursed combinations and options you can choose form.

Now to some, this certainly would not be much of a hassle. But for others, you can't help but imagine or think of the idea that there would be a better way to organize the receivers while enjoying that same amount of content. One set of news, I am the latter. Better set of news, I made a solution.

One of the focal point changes regarding this is silo'd out weapons. Rifles that will share roughly the same amount of attachments and modularity, but now all receivers are now separated into technically four different rifles to choose from. Falling under one flag of stats that has a compilation of Pros and Cons, and in F3/NV/4 Fashion all receiving renames, reallocation, simplified fun. As now the final product will provide the following weapons to you:

Surplus Rifle

Assault Rifle

ATEC Assault Rifle

ATEC Assault Carbine

These four will now serve as the new focal points of both mods of the new unofficial update I will be cranking out later, and for this section, we will be talking about all four of then and what they will be doing now with the changes I provided to them.

Surplus Rifle (M16A2)

"M16A1 Rifle. The chief rifle used by the US army during the middle part of the 20th century. Composed of durable aluminum alloy and hardy plastic." - Fallout Tactics Description of the M16A1 Rifle in-game

+ Range dominant - Lack of modularity

The M16(A2) makes a return to the Commonwealth, a little bit as it was, alongside sporting some new colors and new metals. This rifle will be the plain and simplistic. Almost as it was in its Fallout: Tactics Counterpart.

You will be able to swap barrels and handguards, but only at rifle length (18" & 20") & Handguards are only limited to it's vintage market parts. Stocks are openly available on top of grips, but you will be unable to modify sights in any shape or form. In Fallout: Tactics fashion, receivers will have semi and burst fire at the ready thanks to the T6M Burst Fire Framework.

The Surplus Rifle was designed with the true to form older Fallout Titles in mind. No worries about sights, or fancy's. Simply a rifle ready to accomplish the task of any marksman.

Assault Rifle (MK18/M4)

"A chief Carbine predecessor to the M16 Series. Available in higher modularity with a price of being available in carbine length."

+ Higher Modularity - Carbine length only

The M4/MK18- what has been deemed as the popular choice of the Assault Rifle, will now serve as the default Assault Rifle for the Commonwealth.

Despite the compact profiling, the M4 will essentially be the next step up towards the MK18, and is best described as a weapon progression loosely akin to the path of New Vegas's. Sights are now available, and you will have access to a little more "barrel" attachment & the works, all at the cost of only having to pick from Carbine style handguards.

ATEC Assault Rifle (MEGA-15/PUNISHER-15)

"An Army Test & Evaluation Center rendition of the famous M4 Carbine. With an even wider array of parts to pick and choose from, multi-caliber capabilities, it is still the standardized Assault Rifle known and loved with the price of heavier weight."

+ Even higher modularity + Multi-Caliber + Full utilization of Fallout 4's customization system - Heavier weight - Harder to come by... at least through conventional wastelanders.

This rendition, is for those who want the most out of their AR-15 iteration with Fallout 4's custom works. You will now have a wide array of barrel options to choose from. Ranging from standardized, to light, to ported, combat iterations and many more.

The MEGA-15 will also be the only weapon in this update that will support multi-caliber magazines. The Blackout and SOCOM Magazines (both will be covered in a future chapter) will be available through the MEGA-15, not only broadening and making the MEGA-15 the rifle that will utilize all of Fallout 4's weapon system. At the cost of a heavier weight compared to the other rifles.

The PUNISHER-15, albeit a entirely different weapon will be huddled together with the MEGA-15 rifle series. And only through the MEGA-15 that we will cover in a later chapter.

ATEC Assault Carbine (Noveske-15)

"The logical answer to the success of the Army Test & Evaluation Center's Assault Rifle. It's Assault Carbine variant did not see much in the way of additional improvements, it excels in rapid fire situations with lighter weight, with difficult controllability."

+ Fastest firing iteration of the Assault Series - Automatic Only - Restricted to only one Handguard - 5.56 Vanilla Submachine Gun

This is essentially what the likes of the Surplus Rifle would be in ATEC format, just flipped around and something smaller, faster. The rifle will be permanently automatic with methods to make it so akin to CodeBlackCrash's Submachine Gun Improvements. You will still have a availability with sights, and the sort, just with no ability to swap handguards.

In the original release of the MK18 1k Empire Addon, the Noveske had only access to a Noveske branded charging handle, a handguard that is only available in 10", and receivers both in Semi and Auto. Because the Surplus Rifle had availability in Semi & Burst, the M4 in semi & Auto alongside the MEGA-15, having another weapon with all available receivers made it feel way too redundant. So the best bet was to make it into a Automatic only. In technicality, the Surplus Rifle would be considered a perma-Semi given its old/new purpose. And it would also feel just as redundant having only two perma-semis. So it was only fair to give the Noveske the opportunity to serve as a 5.56 based SMG. A part of this was made with the intention of presenting utilization of the vanilla 5.56 ammo based automatic alternative, while after providing marksman based renditions with the other four rifles. It is lighter than the other platforms, but with harder controllability, while also being the fastest firing AR-15 Iteration in the series.

This is your brief introduction to these newly updated rifles for the Commonwealth and in a later episode, I'll actually be covering what I did to make the dream happen. Other than that, I wanted to thank you for the brief introduction, and I hope you will be staying tuned to what's to come in later chapters.
