So, After listening to the Non Standard Defensive Weapons modest and later talking to
@nyeti I thought about being limited to certain weapons. The limitation to the type of weapon can in some instances limit our ability to enhance them with certain enablers, but it shouldn't.
If your only option was a shotgun or a lever gun why wouldn't you want the advantage various enablers give you? LPVO assuming it survives on a shot gun gives the same advantage of information gathering it does on a rifle. Its purpose may not be to shoot while magnified but the need for the information it provides doesn't change.
Weapon lights should be considered and adapted on all platforms.
I for one would love to see the work you could do with a 45-70 lever gun equipped with an LPVO, MAWL, and OKW head.
I think the only FUDD way to look at is to say "it good enough just keeping it stock"
