The gun doesn't appear in the players Right Arm like I want it to. What can I do to fix it?

This is a local script, if FE is enabled. It will not be able to place the tool into Workspace. You will need a remote function somewhere in there. Necrorave 560 — 9y

I can see a few problems with your script. On line 19, you have,
1 | w.Part1 = gun |
That line is attempting to set the entire model as part1. Unless the flintlock is a single part. Also, you didn't move the gun into the tool, therefore the clone is still in the lighting. Below is a code that should work.
01 | -----------VARIABLES-------------- |
02 | local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer --The player |
03 | local tool = script.Parent --The Hopperbin |
04 | local gun = game.Lighting.Flintlock:Clone() --The gun itself , cloned here for your convenience |
05 | local ra = player.Character:WaitForChild('Right Arm') --Indentifies right arm for equip |
06 | local rl = player.Character:WaitForChild('Right Leg') --Infentifies right leg for unequip |
07 |
08 | ---------MAIN SCRIPT---------------- |
09 |
10 | tool.Selected:connect(function() |
11 | gun.Parent = tool --Places the gun into the tool |
12 | local w = Instance.new("Weld") |
13 | w.Parent = tool:WaitForChild("Flintlock") |
14 | w.Part0 = ra |
15 | w.Part1 = gun -- Assuming the gun is a single part |
16 | w.Part1.CFrame = CFrame.new(5,3,17) |
17 | end) |
Let me know if this helped you!
