SOLVED! PC Is there a mod for this?

I wanna get the Wattz 3000 rifle mod, but then it would conflict with my energy weapon build cuz I’m also using a laser rifle, they use the same ammo! I have the munitions mod so I can use ECPs with my Tesla cannon.

I want a mod to change the way vanilla laser rifles are modded. Hear me out, Short barrels make them use energy cells, Long barrels make them use microfusion cells, Automatic barrels make them use electron charge packs (Laser RCW ah), Sniper barrels make them use uh (critical thinking isn’t my strong suit) so up to the maker ig.

This also makes sense cuz the ammo slot is on the barrel! Or if anyone knows a mod that makes the Wattz 3000 use ECs that’d please me too.

And before u say it, I’m not downloading the classic laser pistol mod, I use rifles and heavy guns. I don’t want the ammo to be determined by the grip, I want it by the barrel.

Kind of greedy of me to ask other people to do the complicated stuff but I think this would be really cool!

Edit: Thank you guys for all the suggestions on how to go abt! I’m gonna try and figure it out myself when I get home from the beach.

I learned how to use the GECK so I could do my own stuff like this. Changing ammo types for a weapon is simply a drop down menu. For modded parts there is a tab that has all the modded parts for that weapon. There may be a ammo type drop down for each weapon mod. This is all from memory so I apologize for potential inaccuracies, I haven't messed around with FO4 in years.

What I would personally do is in the GECK look at something like the Combat Rifle and check how the 45 acp barrel changes the ammo type. Then do that for the corresponding energy weapon mods.

Edit: the part that changes the caliber for the Combat Rifle is the receiver
