Doing waits through delta time

I’m working on a gun system currently and the higher your fps is the faster you fire your gun. What is a good way at making sure everyone’s fire rate will be at the same time.

Add cooldowns on the server for the maximum amount of bullets each client can request to send.
Example:

local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local Players = game:GetService("Players")

local CanFireGun = {}
local DebounceTime = 0.05 -- 20 times per second max

Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(Player)
	CanFireGun[Player.UserId] = true
end)

Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(Player)
	CanFireGun[Player.UserId] = nil
end)

local Remotes = ReplicatedStorage.Remotes
local FireGun = Remotes.FireGun

FireGun.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(Player)
	if not CanFireGun[Player.UserId] then return end
	CanFireGun[Player.UserId] = false
	task.delay(DebounceTime, function()
		CanFireGun[Player.UserId] = true
	end)
	
	--Do stuff here
end)

Use DeltaTime.

local gunCooldown = 0


runservice.PreRender:Connect(function(deltaTime)
    if gunCooldown <= 0 then
        gunCooldown = 0.2 --// 0.2 seconds

        --// fire gun

    else
        gunCooldown -= deltaTime

    end
end)
