Note: Special thanks to http://tf2wiki.net/wiki/Scripting for showing me how to make this possible.

1. Start Insurgency

2. Enable the developers console in Options > Keyboard > Advanced...

3. Press ~ to open the console

4. Copy and paste these commands into the console one line at a time and press <Enter> for each

alias "+M67" "nades"; alias "-M67" "slot2"; bind F3 "+M67"
alias "+M18" "nades"; alias "-M18" "slot3"; bind F4 "+M18"
alias "+M1911A1" "drop; pistols"; alias "-M1911A1" "slot3"; bind ALT "+M1911A1"

NOTE: if you play as marine all the time then use this set:

alias "+M4" "drop; guns"; alias "-M4" "slot1"; bind F5 "+M4"
alias "+M1014" "drop; guns"; alias "-M1014" "slot5"; bind F6 "+M1014"
alias "+M14" "drop; guns"; alias "-M14" "slot3"; bind F7 "+M14"
alias "+M249" "drop; guns"; alias "-M249" "slot4"; bind F8 "+M249"

alias "+AKS74U" "drop; guns2"; alias "-AKS74U" "slot3"; bind F9 "+AKS74U"
alias "+FNFAL" "drop; guns2"; alias "-FNFAL" "slot2"; bind F10 "+FNFAL"
alias "+L42A1" "drop; guns2"; alias "-L42A1" "slot7"; bind F11 "+L42A1"
alias "+RPK" "drop; guns2"; alias "-RPK" "slot4"; bind F12 "+RPK"

NOTE: if you play as insurgent all the time then use this set:

alias "+M4" "drop; guns2"; alias "-M4" "slot1"; bind F5 "+M4"
alias "+M1014" "drop; guns2"; alias "-M1014" "slot5"; bind F6 "+M1014"
alias "+M14" "drop; guns2"; alias "-M14" "slot3"; bind F7 "+M14"
alias "+M249" "drop; guns2"; alias "-M249" "slot4"; bind F8 "+M249"

alias "+AKS74U" "drop; guns"; alias "-AKS74U" "slot3"; bind F9 "+AKS74U"
alias "+FNFAL" "drop; guns"; alias "-FNFAL" "slot2"; bind F10 "+FNFAL"
alias "+L42A1" "drop; guns"; alias "-L42A1" "slot7"; bind F11 "+L42A1"
alias "+RPK" "drop; guns"; alias "-RPK" "slot4"; bind F12 "+RPK"

You press a key and you will instantly have a weapon from the guns menu placed in your hand without having to go through the trouble of typing "!guns" in chat and picking the weapon that way.

1. Join an Insurgency server which has the Guns Menu mod (Note: if you say "!guns" in chat and nothing happens then odds are it doesn't have the Guns Menu mod)

2. Press any key from F3-F12, or my personal favorite which is Alt for a MEUSOC customized 1911. (Note: this is a server dependent script. See <TroubleShooting> for information on how to customize it for the server you play on)

Some servers are a little slow in displaying the guns menu. When that happens just keep your binded weapons key depressed a bit longer, until the menu shows, and then release the key to get the weapon.

Note: Not all servers have all weapons available, and not all servers even have the Guns menu mod. Also, different servers have weapons in different locations in the menu so you may need to edit the script to work for your server of choice, for example:

alias "+M4" "drop; guns"; alias "-M4" "slot1"; bind F5 "+M4"

So If you say in chat "!guns", or "!guns2" if your an insurgent, and in the menu that appears you see the M4 is weapon #5 then edit the script above so it looks like this:

alias "+M4" "drop; guns"; alias "-M4" "slot5"; bind F5 "+M4"

Also it was hinted at in <Installation> that this script is dependent on you being the type of player that sticks to one team only, i.e. only plays as an insurgent or only as a marine. And you would only install the set of scripts that matched your play style. The reason for this is the weapons displayed in the guns and guns2 menu is dependent on the team you are on i.e. "!guns" shows ak's if you're an insurgent and "!guns" shows m4's if you're a marine. The only difference between the two script sets is all instances of "guns" are replaced with "guns2", and all "guns2" with "guns"

Lets examine the most common weapon you'll probably use:

alias "+M4" "drop; guns"; alias "-M4" "slot1"; bind F5 "+M4"

The semicolons make it easier to paste commands into the console, but harder to read so lets seperate it into multiple lines and explain what is happening:

alias "+M4" "drop; guns"

"M4" is just a name i assigned. The "+" infront means when alias "M4" is triggered by a keydown event that it should issue the "drop" command, to drop your current primary weapon, and then the "guns" command to show the guns menu.

alias "-M4" "slot1"

The same "M4" alias again except with a "-" infront which means when alias "M4" is triggered by a keyup event that it should issue the "slot1" command, which is like pressing the "1" button, to pick the weapon in the first entry of the Guns menu which on most servers is a m4 carbine.

bind F5 "+M4"

This binds the F5 key to the "+M4" alias which when held down triggers the first half of the bind which drops your current primary weapon and displays the Gun Menu, and when released will trigger the "-M4" alias which picks the desired weapon from the Gun Menu.

The MEUSOC 1911 is a one-hit kill weapon, most of the time, although i've seen laggy players with poor pings survive 3-4 hits to the chest, and you can kill someone with it at ANY range (with 1 bullet) if you can level your sights on them (A headshot is not required, a chest shot is instant death, and even a foot shot could kill them). Remember, this is just an unrealistic hl2 mod.

Here's some tips: At super close range fire 2-3 shots without aiming i.e. use hip fire. At medium range use a double tap with sights up (put 2 in them before their body hits the ground, to compensate for any player-movement lag. The recoil means about 5 inch groups, which shouldn't matter. Don't reload yet, scan for other targets). At all other distances take extra time to aim between shots, use the pistol like its a rifle (yes, it is more deadly and easier to aim then the m16 in this game even at sniper distances). To hit a runner do NOT aim at them, instead aim where they are headed and wait for them to enter your sight.

This script means you can have as many 1911's as you need as fast as you can press the Alt key and all this exposure to the weapon means in about a week you will be a pro with it. Just use the weapon all the time to master its recoil, odd hip-firing characteristics, limited ammo, and unrealistically pointy front sight and you'll never want to use another weapon again.
