How do I make an advanced gun with this list:

  • Auto, Triple or single, Fire customizable.
  • Create a bullet and make it accurate for when shoot at something
  • Adding a scope on certain models like snipers
  • Adding a good animation to the reloading.

How would I be able to make a gun that does all of those?

  • For Auto, Triple, or single, you can use loops to determine how much you should fire.
  • For creating a bullet, you can clone some part to act as a bullet and use force to move the bullet from one place to another.
  • For a scope, you can use unions to create some sort of modeled scope. It’s best to experiment around with different “parts” that Roblox provides.
  • For animation, I recommend using Moon Animator for your animations. For it to be “good,” it will require a lot of practice and time, though time is subjective as it follows how well you animate.

  • create the gun model
  • (fire modes) take user input maybe the v key to switch a variable that determines what happens when the mouse button is held with the gun equipped
  • use instance.new() to create a part at the end of the muzzle and tweenservice to fire it down the barrels direction vector raycast for hit detection or fire it towards mouse.hit
  • viewport frames for scope
  • and make an animation on the gun and run the animation whenever

this really aint a 1 job thing this requires good scripiting and animating know how to get done you could probably finid a good tutorial online for guns if thats all u want but in reality the best way is to build up your skills in scripting, animating and modelling/building

I would suggest you make it fully customizable using a lot of variables or using a table. You could use something like

local gunSettings = {
	ammo = 30,
	reserve = 120,
	gunType = "Automatic",
	hasScope = false,
	dmg = 15,
	bulletVelocity = 1200,
}

etc. Make a lot of custom functions and add a lot of user activity when using the gun.
