When I run this script, this error pops up.

Any ideas on what I should do?
I just tried it and it works fine. I had some fun throwing chairs and father Grigori.
Script should be in addons/whatever/lua/weapons/whatever/shared.lua
Move the code to lua/weapons.
Moving to code to lua/weapons did remove the error.
But the gun doesn't appear in the game.
I tried
lua_openscript
But it said that the file could not be found.
Try give romester_fun_gun
Thanks everyone for helping out.
