Extract mod from a weapon

An idea from another thread.

There seems to be quite a lot of weapons with nice mods attached that end up being never used for one reason or another. So my idea is simple: let players extract one mod from the weapon, but it requires high munitions skills, some tools, and will destroy the weapon in the process.

This would create a secondhand market for mods, but won't crash the price too far (hopefully) as it does consume the weapon, and gives gunsmiths more possible avenues of RP and even revenue.

And declutter the 2nd hand heaters market as a bonus.

I think you can remove mods from weapons, but not keep them. This is a happy reminder that there has been progress in updating game mechanics to be less obtuse, because that feature was only added a year or two back, I believe. It used to be that modded guns will forever be modded with those mods.

Destroying the gun to recover the mod instead of the mod to recover the gun sounds like an interesting compromise.

I've never understood why you can't just remove a mod from guns and leave both the mod and the gun intact. Is it an economy issue? Just about everything else has a second-hand market, the game seems not to have exploded from that, what's the reason that the mods don't?

More work for munitions chums! Mods on and off with no penalties assuming high enough skills/stats and maybe an expensive and specialized tool? More things to rob!

I am not sure why honestly, especially as mods tend to have downsides and more specialize a weapon rather than just make it better in every way outright. I would not hate being able to take mods on and off, but simply assume there is bigger issue at play here. And maaaaybe make the mod have small % chance to get destroyed each uninstall, just to not overflood the market?

More or less that gun modifications were implemented across three weeks, 16 years ago, and didn't see a lot of attention until they were updated to undo mods. One of the original mods involved sawing things off a firearm so my guess was to make them all make sense the final products just produced a new item with the new attributes for design coherence.

Yeah, that one didn't even cross my mind as uninstall able hah, just get a new shotty. But I would love 2nd hand market for mods, more reasons to get guns!
