why can't I modify my anti-matieral rifle gun?
I have them both and it is not listed when I try to modify my gun. I have tried to modify weapons before this, but I assumed that they simply were incompatible. Is it because of weapon texture mods I've installed?

Do you have the regular version or the GRA version?

Everything I see in the gun runners vendor is as it is listed on the wiki https://fallout.fandom.com/wiki/Fallout:_New_Vegas_weapon_mods

I've checked my inventory, I have what the wiki said I need. All I can think of is that one of my mods probably messed with the item lists, but I'm not good enough to know what to do about it.

The way the game sees it, "Anti-Materiel Rifle" and "Anti-Materiel Rifle GRA" are two completely different weapons. You cannot put GRA tagged weapon mods on weapons that don't end with GRA in the name.

There are mods that fix this if your interested. This is the one I use, but there are others if you don't like this one: https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/44587

There is nothing in my game anywhete with "GRA" in the name. I have found one out of 6 weapons that can be modified, even with the WMX mod installed. So many of them are installed that it will be hard to figure out what is causing this, and I think that adding another mod that lets me buy weapons and upgrades would be easier to manage.

If you have no weapons with GRA it means you dont have the weapons that are compatible with GRA mods. You'll need to buy them. Vendortron sells Anti Materiel Rifle GRA after level 16.

I have a mod or two that unbugs weapons, and that other one by millenia. Am I missing a patch? Is there a feature of project nevada or jsawyer to change the weapon mod feature?

No, OP you need the gun runners DLC to be able to mod the anti material rifle, if you have the DLC you'll then need to acquire an Anti-Material Rifle GRA in game to be able to apply the mods onto the rifle, hope this helps

Only the Fat Man (GRA) can take modification parts from the base game not originally intended for it. Otherwise all base game weapons only take base game parts, and GRA weapons only take GRA parts.

Watch what magazine upgrade you buy if you decide to modify an Assault Carbine, because there's two different magazines for two different versions....
