There are many types of methods of making a weapon system work (pistol, assault rifle, etc) and there are also many tutorials on how to make a weapon shoot but there is no entry way on how to make a firing weapon especially for beginners. Today I’m going to teach you the entry way on firing a weapon
First off, you would need a good understanding of:
- CFrames
- a basic understanding of tools
- a good understanding of scripting
now lets get started, after you’ve read through this tutorial your Handle part should be doing this:

Step 1. Go to Starter Pack in your Explorer and select “+” from there insert a Tool into your StarterPack.
Step 2. When a tool is inserted into StarterPack, click “+” on tool and insert a LocalScript
Step 3. repeat step 2 but this time insert a part named “Handle” into the tool, make sure the name “Handle” has a capital H and make sure the handle is unanchored in the properties tab.
Now here’s where it gets good…
step 4. click on your local script and copy this code down below:
handle = script.Parent:WaitForChild(“Handle”)
mouse = game.Players.LocalPlayer:GetMouse()
speed = 1000
mouse.Button1Down:Connect(function()
local bullet = Instance.new(“Part”,handle)
bullet.CanCollide = false
bullet.Shape = Enum.PartType.Ball
bullet.BrickColor = BrickColor.new(“Yellow flip/flop”)
bullet.Size = Vector3.new(1,1,1)
bullet.Velocity = handle.CFrame.LookVector * speed
bullet.CFrame = handle.CFrame
end)
And that’s it, an basic method on how to fire a weapon on Roblox now its best advised to actually learn how to script on Roblox rather than just copy and paste code because you can addon more things to what you want to do related to scripting.
