RDR 2 has many amazing details and features it lets you interact with. One such feature is using a lantern. There is just one major issue with it, it forces you to give up one of your precious hands despite the fact that Arthur attaches it to his satchel often.
With Stash That Lantern you will now have complete control over your lantern!

As of 2.0, you can now attach your lantern to your horse as well utilizing the same controls provided it has a saddle on it.
When mounting a horse with your lantern on your satchel, the lantern will automatically be transferred to the horse you are currently on; when leaving, it will return to you.
Controls are contextual and are as follows:
While your Lantern is equipped press the "Reload" button on your Keyboard/Mouse or Controller.
By default, these are "R" and "B" respectively.
If you want to remove it from your satchel, simply reselect the lantern from the weapon wheel, pressing the "Holster" button will return it to your inventory.
As of 2.6: When pressing the "Reload" button while holding a pistol or revolver in your primary hand, you will now be able to take the lantern back off your satchel without holstering your pistol
