This is the most common type of actual modding. I will start with the basics, and go on from there.

Weapon Ammo
Frame 6
Line 20

ammo=new Array(0,11,4,15,20,30,7,30,30,10,0,0,0,20,10,20,20,50,100000000000,5,4,30,14,65,0,0,0,6);
btypes=new Array(0,0,1,3,2,4,2,5,4,2,1,0,0,0,4,3,4,4,2,0,7,6,0,5,0,0,0,0,8);

The first line, ammo, shows how much ammo the weapon's magazine can hold.
The second line, btypes, designates the type of bullet it should display on the side of the screen. The different types are outlined below.

btypes

btype 0		Fist / Baseball Bat / Switch Blade / Night Stick
btype 1		Pistol / Silenced Pistol
btype 2		Uzi / CQB / Silenced Mp5 / UMP-45
btype 3		Shotgun / Saiga
btype 4		M16 / M60 / AK-47 / Steyr Aug / L85
btype 5		Desert Eagle / Automag
btype 6		Rocket Launcher
btype 7		Railgun
btype 8		Grenade Launcher

Multiply the guntimer's root.runspeed. The higher you multiply it by, the slower it fires.
Note: The sound stays the same, so a very slow automatic still has very fast shooting sounds.

//#GUN#
if (#FIRE#) {
     #TIMER#--;
     if (#TIMER#<0) {
          #TIMER=#SLOW#*_root.runspeed;
          shoot(arot);
     }
}

#GUN# is the gun's name.
#FIRE# is the firetype.
#TIMER# is the gun's timer.
#SLOW# is the number that is multiplied to slow the fire rate of the weapon.

There are some variations of this layout. This only works for automatics.

Making a Weapon Stab People
Frame 6 / pgen (mc.guy) / hand (mc.hand)
Line 937

if ((_parent.guntype==12 || _parent.guntype==25) && n<3) {
//knifin' around
t.knife(txc/hv,tyc/hv,fdir*dir,hv,headshot,pt.x,pt.y);
}

Add another Guntype (see Index I for help) onto the end of the if statement. Example:

if ((_parent.guntype==12 || _parent.guntype==25 || _parent.guntype==32) && n<3) {
//knifin' around
t.knife(txc/hv,tyc/hv,fdir*dir,hv,headshot,pt.x,pt.y);
}

Making a Weapon Stick In People
Frame 6 / pgen (mc.guy) / head (mc.head) / stuck (mc.stuck)
Frame 6 / pgen (mc.guy) / body (mc.body) / stuck (mc.stuck)
Add a new frame at the end of this motion clip. Fill it with what you want the weapon to look like once it's hit the enemy.

Frame 6 / tgun (mc.tgun)
Line 169

if (n==0 && (_currentframe==11 || _currentframe==24)) {
     if (_currentframe==11) {
          sticktype=1;
     } else (_currentframe==24) {
          sticktype=2;
     }

Add more if() statements. Example:

if (n==0 && (_currentframe==11 || _currentframe==24 || _currentframe==32)) {
     if (_currentframe==11) {
          sticktype=1;
     } else (_currentframe==24) {
          sticktype=2;
     } else (_currentframe==32) {
          sticktype=3;
     }

Two-Handed Weapons
Frame 6 / pgen (mc.guy) (Frame 2) / nonhand (mc.nonhand2)

Give nonhand the following Actionscript:

onClipEvent(enterFrame){
     if(_parent.guntype == #GUN#){
          this._visible = false;
     }
     else{
          this._visible = true;
     }
}

#GUN# is the Guntype of the Gun you wish to be Two-Handed (see Index I for help).
To have multiple two-handed weapons, simply divide each #GUN# with a ||. Example:

onClipEvent(enterFrame){
     if(_parent.guntype == #GUN# || _parent.guntype == #GUN#){
          this._visible = false;
     }
     else{
          this._visible = true;
     }
}

Multiple Weapon Slots
Frame 6 / pgen (mc.guy) / hand (mc.hand)
Line 737

Change it to say this:

if (Key.isDown(_root.keys[_root.ki["switch"]]) && switchtimer<0) {
     switchtimer=5
     tempgun=_parent.guntype;
     tempammo=ammo;
     _parent.guntype=resgun;
     ammo=resammo;
     resgun=tempgun;
     resammo=tempammo;
     tempgun2 = _parent.guntype;
     tempammo2 = ammo;
     _parent.guntype = resgun2;
     ammo = resammo2;
     resgun2 = tempgun2;
     resammo2 = tempammo2;

Line 20

resgun=1; //secondary weapon
resammo=0;

Change it to say this:

resgun=1;
resammo=0;
resgun2=1;
resammo2=0;
