modular gun code

heres a oxford wet dream
done, all it tok was a little coding https://github.com/JohnOxford/tgstation/pull/1
dubbed: oxgun
a firearm system, modular in every aspect, spanning over 40 different types of weapons with over 500 individual weapons with a matching pair of 400 different attachments.
a master script, covering what it fires, firing, ect, then every new gun model would just be a set of vars to change
its name, how far it shoots, how fast it shoots, what it shoots, how many it shoots
and then make it so indepth, so functional, so useful, that it's then used across all servers. as far as the eye can see, every server will have oxford guncode in it.
maybe even give it a database, so game wikis could select their own guns from that database once they've coded them, then have a prefab wikipedia article made.
maybe even use the database as a tool so that every model of a gun made that fits a certain criteria is added to a list, were it will be constantly expanding so long as the servers keep using it.
edit:
lets say it creates a huge fucking metagame between all servers, that regardless of your servers lore or what its based on, code wise you will always have access to every firearm in ss13.
if your server creates -30 ish unique firearms, and they all meet a certain criteria, you could create a company, the company would be branded on all the firearms and all the firearms would then be accessable to the public
