Dialog-information.png This article needs checking.

Reason(s): "Some weapon types do not work."... needs investigating. Shotguns do not work because the pellet code was complex and its actually 8 very clustered pellets. All other bullet weapons should work and be synced. Exact weapons this works with needs documenting still.

Creates a custom weapon that can fire bullets not related to player held weapons. Note: Some weapon types do not work.
