Almost every weapon has a nearly identical script, it's the model that varies the most(Exception: really unique weapons). And you know what? A recoloured rocket launcher would be sufficient here. |

It took me approximately thirty minutes to make my TF2 emotes script and roughly an hour, maybe two, to model a gun. |

WAIT WHAT ARE THESE THINGS YOU CALL EMITTERS THEY MUST BE BAD |

However, I am really fond of generalization and exageration, and once you consider weapon states, it could easily take longer to create a full weapon. Plus, this would be an imitation, so more time would be spent adjusting the particles than for a mere emote. |
