This needs to be attached to the GameObject that contains the Animation component of the gun. You could also insert code to the script that actually fires the gun and then call a function of the script attached to the gun.

You probably wrote it without "". The call in your case would look like this: animation.Play("Shoot");

Well you got your script right, wellt under the FireOneShot function (if you have one)

example of the FireOnShot Code

function FireOneShot () { var direction = transform.TransformDirection(Vector3.forward); animation.Play("Fire Shot") var hit : Raycasthit;

 if(Physics.Raycast (transform.position, direction, hit, range))
 {
     if (hit.rigidbody)
        hit.rigidbody.AddForceAtPosition(force * direction hit.point);
     if(hitParticles)
     {
         hitParticles.transform.position = hit.point;
         hitParticles.transform.rotation = Quaternion.FromToRotation(Vector3.up, hit.normal);
         hitParticles.Emit();
     }

     hit.collider.SendMessageUpwards("ApplyDamage", damage, SendMessageOptions.DontRequireReciever);
 }

}

This is the shoot function for my script. Pretty confusing huh.
