Attempt to index function with 'Play'

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

This is my gun script. The problem occurs when it comes to reloading. I get this error:
Players.Towren.Backpack.HK416.MainScript:25: attempt to index function with ‘Play’

Here is my code:

wait(0.001)
local maxAmmo = 30
local Ammo = maxAmmo
local reloading = false
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local playerGui = player:WaitForChild("PlayerGui")
local textLabel = playerGui:WaitForChild("HK416Ammo"):FindFirstChild("AmmoText")
local humanoid = game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character:FindFirstChildOfClass("Humanoid")
local animator = humanoid:FindFirstChildOfClass("Animator")
local reload = animator:LoadAnimation(script.Parent.Anims:FindFirstChild("Reload"))
local holdAnim = animator:LoadAnimation(script.Parent.Anims:FindFirstChild("Hold"))
local Mouse = game.Players.LocalPlayer:GetMouse()

script.Parent.Equipped:Connect(function()
	holdAnim:Play()
	textLabel.Parent.Enabled = true
	
	local function reload()
		local reloadSound = Instance.new("Sound")
		reloadSound.SoundId = "rbxassetid://144798533"
		reloadSound.Parent = script.Parent
		reloadSound.Playing = true
		reloadSound.PlaybackSpeed = 1.5
		reloading = true
		reload:Play()
		wait(2.5)
		Ammo = maxAmmo
		reloading = false
	end
	
	script.Parent.Activated:Connect(function()
		if Ammo > 0 and not reloading then
				Ammo = Ammo - 1
				local sound = Instance.new("Sound")
				sound.SoundId = "rbxassetid://168143115"
				sound.Parent = script.Parent
				sound.Playing = true
				if Mouse.Target.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then
					script.Parent.DealDamage:FireServer(Mouse.Target.Parent, 15)
				end
		elseif reloading == false then
			reload()
		end
		
		while wait() do
			textLabel.Text = (Ammo).." / "..maxAmmo
		end
	end)
	
	local input = game:GetService("UserInputService")
	input.InputBegan:Connect(function(Key)
		if Key.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.R and reloading == false and Ammo ~= maxAmmo then
			reload()
		end
	end)
end)

script.Parent.Unequipped:Connect(function()
	holdAnim:Stop()
	textLabel.Parent.Enabled = false
end)

Anyone got any solutions?

Your reload function and your reload variable have the same name, change one of them to have a different name and change all the references to it
