How to make hands and gun look same direction as camera?

I made some animations for a gun, I want to turn it into an fps but I’m not sure how to integrate a view-model (arms and gun) into first person just on the client side, like in this video:

Any help appreciated!

A script like this would make the shoulders Motor6Ds move on the Y axis depending on the mouses position.

local CFnew, CFang = CFrame.new, CFrame.Angles
local asin = math.asin
local mouse = game.Players.LocalPlayer:GetMouse()

script.Parent:WaitForChild("Torso")

local c = coroutine.create(function()
	while wait(.1) do
		if game.Players.LocalPlayer.Name == script.Parent.Name then
			local T = "Torso"
			if script.Parent:WaitForChild(T) then
				local T1 = "Left Shoulder"
				if script.Parent:WaitForChild(T):WaitForChild(T1) then 
					local R = script.Parent:WaitForChild(T):WaitForChild(T1).C0.Rotation
					local T = script.Parent:WaitForChild(T):WaitForChild(T1)
					local cframe = CFnew(-1, .5, 0) * CFang(-asin((mouse.Origin.p - mouse.Hit.p).Unit.y), -1.55, R.Z)
					local C0 = cframe
					T.C0 = C0
				end

				local T1 = "Right Shoulder"
				if script.Parent:WaitForChild(T):WaitForChild(T1) then 
					local R = script.Parent:WaitForChild(T):WaitForChild(T1).C0.Rotation
					local T = script.Parent:WaitForChild(T):WaitForChild(T1)
					local cframe = CFnew(-1, .5, 0) * CFang(-asin((mouse.Origin.p - mouse.Hit.p).Unit.y), 1.55, R.Z)
					local C0 = cframe
					T.C0 = C0
				end
			end
		end
	end
end)

coroutine.resume(c)

This script can be improved, but this is just some old code I wrote for client. It might not work.

Anyway to make it look at cameras direction instead of mouse direction?

I am not sure how to make it directional to the camera.
