I scale the weapon to the player avatar mesh and align it within the player's Scene in the appropriate location in the appropriate pose. Duplicate[same location/orientation] or cut the mountO node[or your intended node], rename it to mountPoint. Delete the player 'data' in the Scene. There is my base weapon Scene; now I adjust as desired; adding nodes moving the objects, etc...I guess you could always script the offsets in thru trial/error.

To Tim, Does the eyeOffset some function in 3D software or it's the script written by you?
To Rex, Do you do it inside game or in 3D software?

The mount point & offset for 3rd person, and eye offset for first person rendering is locate in the weapon cs file look at the crossbow. When you create your weapon in the 3d software keep it at the center 0 0 0 and you may have to tweak it a little in the script but not much.
