Forum:Modded WT level question

So, as many of you wiki regulars know - I started modding for fun. Well, today i made a S&S SMG. Now I LOVE the thing, but no matter what level I set it to, it stays @ level zero - same goes for any other manufactured gun that shouldn't exist (ie Jakobs CR, Atlas RL). So, can anyone explain to me why these guns refuse to be level 69? - PS Would i be able to hex edit the level up to 69?
