There are plenty of laser weapons for vehicles and buildings, but none for infantry.

Weapon Lazr_PaladinTankGun
LaserName = Lazr_PaladinLaserBeam
LaserBoneName = TurretMS01
FireFX = Lazr_WeaponFX_LaserCrusader

End

So what is the correct bone name for a infantry wanting to shoot laser weapon? There is no infantry weapon with laserbonename.

So far I have seen LazerSpot02,TurretFX01,TurretFX02,TurretFX03,WEAPON02,WEAPONA01,TurretMS01,MUZZLE01,LASER,LazerSpot01.

Is it one of the above or another?

It shouldn't be hard to give a unit a laser weapon. Either by creating one or by giving them a copy of an existing one.
Have a look at the existing bones for the unit. Infantry probably have a 'WeaponFireFXBone' Bone. Try using that in your laser weapon.

I ask because I am a complete noob at modelling.

Also when I gave my custom Jarmen the toxin rebel's weapon, he shoots from his feet now.... arent they both infantry... weird.

I will tryout that bone name for burton's new weapon.

Rebel:
      WeaponFireFXBone    = PRIMARY Muzzle01
      WeaponLaunchBone    = PRIMARY Muzzle01
Kell:
      WeaponFireFXBone  = PRIMARY Muzzle
      WeaponMuzzleFlash = PRIMARY MuzzleFX
Just add the 'WeaponLaunchBone' to kell and set it to Muzzle.

Heres how it works;

LaserName = Lazr_PaladinLaserBeam
LaserBoneName = Muzzle01
FireFX = Lazr_WeaponFX_LaserCrusader

Must have a number, eventhough the unit does not;

WeaponFireFXBone = PRIMARY Muzzle
WeaponLaunchBone = PRIMARY Muzzle

Else you get shots originating from the feet.
