I just need some suggestions for small guns mods. Preferably lore friendly but if it's pretty tame that's fine too. Energy or ballistic, or both. Let me know what you like to use or have used for full play through (looking for something I can use the whole game or most of it) so hopefully things that scale pretty well.

I'm looking for the same thing but with the ability to add a suppressor.
However, for non suppressed weapons I found that the coolest mod is the Cobra Officers Revolver. It is a plasma revolver and works with wardaddy's revolver Reanimation mod.
Right now I'm using a hunting revolver mod until I find something more interesting.
I'm trying a critical gunslinger build (crits outside vats/no vats) similar to how I like to play the courier.
I know it's not a mod but the Deliverer pistol is pretty OP at scoring crits and it has an extremely lost cost in VATS. There also a mod revolver called the Rsh-12 that's badass. It's supposed to be a Russian .50 cal revolver or something like that. It does like 320ish damage and it has a suppressor. Comes with custom sounds and maybe custom anims.
The M1911 mod that's dependent on the USP is lore friendly, lightweight, and has good models and animations. Highly recommend. With the USP it's around 40mb
For lire friendly, I'll suggest Beretta 92FS, Colt 1911 and Desert Eagle, all 3 were in Fallout: Tactics
