how do I animate it and use it in fpsc ?????????????????

p.s sorry I don't know how to add a image to posts

Milkshape.

hes asking "how"
not with "what".

You model/import it into a 3D package (like Blender3D, Maya, 3DS Max, etc.)

And you animate it using the animation tools included with your 3D package (use a gunspec from a melee weapon as a reference for the key frames).

And if you want hands, model the hands and import them into your 3D package and rig them (add bones, label the bones) then attach (some packages call it Parenting) the hands to the weapon and animate that way. Then export it as a .X file to FPSC (i just use a melee weapon folder and delete the texture, replace it with mine, replace all the .X files with my model, and delete the .bin file and modify the gunspec.txt)

Hope that helped,

-EDIT-
After you animate it and export the file, play around and experiment with the settings in the gunspec.txt file, as every weapon has different settings, because they are all modeled differently.
