You just change the AnimationBank name from "pistol" to "rifle" in the weapon's Common ODF file...

this is really simple. instead of giving the pistol the rifle animation etc. you give the rifle the pistol model, simply look at the rep_weap_inf_rifle.odf and replace "rep_weap_inf_rifle.msh" or simply the name next to geometry values to rep_weap_inf_pistol. it does really work.

Overheats? It shouldn't if you do what i did, which is to replace those lines in the rifle odf and then give the unit the rifle as a weapon, it should act exactly like a rifle but will simply look different.

EDIT: you shouldn't need to use common weaps, simply the weapon in the rep odf folder. change that one only
