OOKIE LETS GET STARTED(pistol only)
Choose the model you want. Open it with a model viewer and go to Weapon Origin.
You will see some numbers here:
Modify those number to get your ideal iron sight position.
Now decompile it. After you decompile it, open the qc file with notepad. Here is an example

Under eyeposition add
$origin 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000
and change those zeros into your sight number.
Compile it, copy the model into another folder and decompile it again.
Now copy 1 idle animation, 1 fire animation and the qc file and rename the animations and paste it into your first decompile folder.
Open the qc and modify this part:

Compile it and its done! YAYYYYY!!!!!
I don't recommend de-compiling the model twice, it will mess with the textures.
That's why you only re-compile with the ref .smd(s) from your first de-compiled model(as in the tutorial). Assuming you only want to edit the anim .smds, de-compiling the model multiple times can save you a lot of work(i.e., changeing the model's origin in preperation for additional anim tweaks).
Besides, even if someone does mess up their texture alignment by de-compiling and re-compiling the same model again and again, the UV map can be re-aligned in seconds in milk, max, whatever.
Use paranoia model viewer, you can do all of these changes with no need to decompile the model.
How do I tie it to special (Mouse 2) key??
