This is an endgame weapon and must be researched (downloaded technically, at your communications hub, you can build extras to speed up downloading) and then constructed at your armory (also available in your start menu).
Mods drop randomly (though certain gear ups the odds), especially from the “?” Discover features you will find on maps. Certain Mr. Riggs gear (also researched for the best versions).
The sword and mods are color coded red. Once you have all 3 of any mod type you can save your game, build the sword, apply the mods (and maybe equip it). As soon as it pops, reload, as you may not want to waste 2000 Rhodenite on the sword, nor your best mods.
EDIT: If you are having trouble getting mods.
Discovery features (the ones that you hold X on and get swarmed by enemies) have an extremely high mod drop rate. On high threat maps they have pretty good odds to drop nice mods. So use radars to find as many as possible and warp back to base to do as much killing as possible when your base is under attack.
Also enemy nests have a very high drop rate (I literally got two red mods from 3 nests while typing this).
Use the best Sonic Sensors and Energy Sensors you can craft in Mr. Riggs as both increase mod drop rate. With Red versions for both you have 100% greater chance. I’m unsure if this affects base guns so do as much killing as possible during sieges.
My loadout is normally Shotgun with Extra Spread, Extra Range, and Splash Damage (in that order) and Small Machinegun (any high fire rate weapon will do) with Piercing, Homing Bullets, and Cluster Projectiles. I’m sure there’s better combos but I kill thousands of enemies per siege. I get 2-4 Red mods per hour like this.

This is the very last achievement I need. I can't seem to find any more red weapon attachment mods. I've only found a single one and no matter what I do no more red will drop. I've been playing for hours looking for more. I have all the right attachments to help mod drops but nothing ever pops up do you have any suggestions?
