How do I change the grip of a tool while it's animating?

Did you look at this thread?:

Animating a player as well as a tool

I’m trying to animate an equip animation for a weapon, and I want the weapon itself to do some form of animation on it’s own whilst in the players hand, is there a way I can do that? I’ve tried all things such as binding them together with the character creation plugin and I’ve tried moving it but it doesn’t seem to move, hope there is a way! Thanks

(Basically what @Painshinratensei says, but has a little more info.)
