Piercing magazine

Piercing magazine is a weapon mod for several weapons in Fallout 76.

Effects
When applied to a weapon, the mod increases the weapon's reload speed and armor penetration, ignoring 20% of the target's damage resistance.

Crafting
Weapon modifications will modify an existing weapon, and any modifications previously equipped on the weapon will be destroyed, not unequipped. Loose mods cannot be crafted. For modifications unlocked through scrapping, the corresponding weapon must be scrapped in order to learn how to craft it.
