Just a heads-up, the STA-52 uses the same bullets as the Liberators so it also has increased damage, in case you want to remove the buffs to make it more balanced or something

I first thought the mod wouldn't work, because the assault rifle stats remained the same after I started the game, but it showed when I did a mission and returned to the destryoer. Just for all of you who might have the same problem.

I originally wanted to make it like Grass suggested, but couldn't change it because of this ammo issue. Though if STA-52 can't be a close quarters AR, SMGs can be.

Thank you. As a fan of the basic Liberator, it is annoying watching it get left further and further behind, while AH doesn't care.

Yeah, iconic weapon which nobody uses. Though in the first game it was also not that good, i guess Liberator was cursed from the very start.
