Hope this works for ya. All you need do is add this to the prim. it's works better when its in the main or first prim of the turrent.

CODE

key owner;
key toucher;
string toucherS;
float SPEED = 80.0;
integer LIFETIME = 7;
float DELAY = 0.2;
vector vel;
vector pos;
rotation rot;
integer in_use;
integer have_permissions = FALSE;
integer armed = TRUE;

default
{
on_rez(integer startParam)
{
llResetScript();
}
state_entry()
{
owner = llGetOwner();
in_use = FALSE;
llTriggerSound("", 1.0); // Add a rezz sound
llTriggerSound("", 1.0); // Add a Lock Sound
}
touch_start(integer total_number)
{
if(in_use == FALSE)
{
toucher = llDetectedKey(0);
if(toucher == owner)
{
llRequestPermissions(toucher, PERMISSION_TAKE_CONTROLS|PERMISSION_TRIGGER_ANIMATION);
llSetText("Requesting Permissions", <1,1,1>, 1);
llTriggerSound("", 1.0); //Add a question sound
}
}
if(in_use == TRUE)
{
if(llDetectedKey(0) == toucher && llDetectedKey(0) == owner)
{
llReleaseControls();
llSensorRemove();
llSetRot(<-0.00000, -0.00000, 0.70711, 0.70711>);
llSetText("Unit Offline", <1,1,1>, 1);
llTriggerSound("", 1.0); //add beep sound
in_use = FALSE;
}
}
}
sensor(integer sense)
{
rotation k = llDetectedRot(0);
llRotLookAt(k, 1, 1);
}
no_sensor()
{
llReleaseControls();
llSensorRemove();
llSetRot(<-0.00000, -0.00000, 0.70711, 0.70711>);
llSetText("Unit Offline - Connection Lost", <1,1,1>, 1);
llTriggerSound("", 1.0); // add Alert sound
in_use = FALSE;
}
run_time_permissions(integer perm)
{
if(perm)
{
llSetText("", <1,1,1>, 1);
llTakeControls(CONTROL_ML_LBUTTON, TRUE, FALSE);
llSensorRepeat("", toucher, AGENT, 20, TWO_PI, .1);
llSetText("Unit Online", <1,1,1>, 1);
llTriggerSound("beep yes", 1.0); //add beep sound
llTriggerSound("", 1.0); //add lock load sound
in_use = TRUE;
}
else
{
in_use = FALSE;
llSetText("Unit Offline", <1,3,1>, 1);
}
}
control(key name, integer levels, integer edges)
{
if ((levels & CONTROL_ML_LBUTTON) == CONTROL_ML_LBUTTON)
{
llMessageLinked(LINK_THIS, 0, "fire_nonmistakable", NULL_KEY); ///This is the messagelinked that fires the bolt. It may need a short llSleep after the messagelinked to keep it from seeing a continuous mouseclick?
}
}
link_message(integer sender_num, integer num, string fire_nonmistakable, key id)
{
rot = llGetRot();
vel = llRot2Fwd(rot);
pos = llGetPos();
pos = pos + vel;
pos.z += 0.0;
vel = vel * SPEED;
llTriggerSound("", 1.0); ///This is where the lag seems to start
llSleep(2);
llTriggerSound("", 1.0); //add bullet sound
llRezObject("", pos, vel, rot, 1); ///This can be rezzed up to three or four times before the script is back to normal control
}
}

how do you fire?
how do you aim?
where do you put the bullet?
do you have to script the bullet to?
also i need it so i can mount it on a ship
currently it just move around it all kinds of directions

The command "llTakeControls(CONTROL_ML_LBUTTON, TRUE, FALSE); "
is using the Left mouse button, while in Mouselook - fired like a gun.

Bullets:
I believe for a straight fire you will need to script the bullet to launch itself once it is rezzed by the gun and not if it's merely lobbed. But for both types you should use either llCollision_Start or llSensor to get the bullet to register hitting a target.

llRezObject("", pos, vel, rot, 1);
is where you would put the bullet -
llRezObject("BULLET NAME", Position according to center of primative with the rez script, velocity if the bullet has physics, rotation of the bullet(<x ,y ,z , 1>;), parameter number to be passed onto the bullet-Lets it know it has been fired so you dont shoot someone while editing it :p );

As for mounting, I'm still very new to this but I believe you'd have to first link it all, and then find out what the link number is for all the pieces of the turret and have them rotate as separate pieces :P

Also that script there is quite detailed and can be cut down quite a bit. For instance, mine is at least half that and uses a HUD for controls.

Haha, you know, you can't take a script you know nothing or very little about and use it.
I designed that script around an object, trying to get it to work. After finding a few problems, I've updated the script. That script might work, though I didn't check over the whole thing.

The way I know it was mine was that you left
link_message(integer sender_num, integer num, string fire_nonmistakable, key id)
and
llTriggerSound("", 1.0); ///This is where the lag seems to start
llSleep(2);
llTriggerSound("", 1.0); //add bullet sound
llRezObject("", pos, vel, rot, 1); ///This can be rezzed up to three or four times before the script is back to normal control

in it.

I'm not saying it's bad, but, the script may not be in its entirety.
