Deliverer mods : Fallout 4

This is about quest / faction related progress items so it contains spoilers;

I just talked to Tinker Tom and he told me he had some "items" to make my Deliverer 10mm better. So I check his barter menu and find the "Deliverer Powerfull Receiver" for x caps. So Items appearently means just one.

I have allready modded my Deliverer but since it has this special name and Tinker Tom said it was to make my gun even stronger I figured I'll buy it. With the mod I walk to the craft table, click receiver scroll down and find out it is a basic powerfull receiver,...... I have an advanced receiver on it that came from my trusty 10mm pistol that I used since I picked it up in the Vault 111 at the start and had modified during my 100+ hours of gameplay.

The "Deliverer Powerfull receiver" is the exact same as a regular powerfull receiver and it actually lowers my damage compared to the advanced receiver I have. I do not know if this is a bug or intended but then again if it is intended I dont get why Tinker Tom has theis special weapon mod that is the same as the mods I could pick up from any 10mm pistol since about lvl 10.

So there is my bug / issue hope someone can awnser and clarify this.

That's not a bug. It's just a mod for people who haven't made a better gun mod yet. People typically come here for technical help, not to contest design/gameplay decisions. Not everything that disappoints is a bug.

It is not due to dissapointment I post this here and there is nothing in my post that should indicate that. It was a 90 bottlecaps part and the pc can F9. First of all I was suprised I could even use the regular 10mm parts of a completele different model / style of weapon like the Deliverer. If you FO4edit the Deliverer and the deliverer mods all codes are different from the 10mm so I figured it may have been a residual link to the parts of the regular 10mm from before the Deliverer ones got added to the game.

The Deliverer itself and the conversation you have with Tinker Tom become available at a point in the game where 98% will have their weapons modded by using Gun Nut or have the oppertunity to use the parts from looted guns. The conversation with Tinker Tom also stated the Deliverer is a weapon that should have been unique attachment wise. Another example of this is the broadsider which uses it's unique REFID parts. If that one used rocketlauncher attachments I would have posted it here too.

When attachments for a unique weapon in the base .ESP have seperate REFID's, names and are for a unique weapon model it is logical this could be an uninteded residual link aka a bug. And this part of the forum is for that sort of stuff.
