If i put the Cowboi(with tags and revolver)
And the script is in the StarterPlayerScripts
Then it works perfectly

But if i make it when u press a button it changes u to that starter character then it wont work(it is in replicatedstorage and puts it into playerscripts this time its not in StarterPlayerScripts)

❌ Why it breaks when cloning manually from ReplicatedStorage
When you manually clone a LocalScript from ReplicatedStorage and insert it into PlayerScripts, two things can go wrong:

It runs too early – before the new character ("Cowboi") is fully loaded and tagged.

It only runs once – and may miss character changes (especially if your game swaps characters dynamically).

#

the solution is: You need to wait until the "Cowboi" character is fully inserted and tagged after switching characters.
