ok, do this stuff: (i had same problem)

make sure that in guerilla in ur itme collection tag there is a weight, other wise it will not show up

in sapien make sure there is a respawn time and its type 1 is all games.

heres a step by step on how to do it.

1.) ok, uve got ur .weapon tag right?
2.) in guerilla go to file>> new and select itme collection
3.) for weight enter 100
4.) for the drop down list select weapon
5.) next to that is a box where u can type in, next to that is a button with "..." on
6.) clikc the ... button
7.) browse to whereever ur weapon is and double click ur weapon tag
8.) for spawn time leave it at 0
9.) svae this item collection tag into item collections>> single weapons as **whatvereurweaponiscalled**.item_collection
10.) open up sapien, and open up the map ur putting the weapon in.
11.) in the heirarchy window expand 'game data'
12.) then expand 'netgame equipment'
13.) right click in spaien where u want ur weapon to go
14.) in the heararchy window, the word "none" should appear.
15.) click it
16.) then in the properties pallette select the drop-down menu "type 01" select "all games"
17.) then in the spawn time window, put w.e u want, make sure it isnt 0
18.) then there should be a bar at the bottom that says "item collection" next to it and another "..." buton
19.) click thge ... button and go to item collections>> single weapons and select ur one u made previously.
20.) place as many of these as you want in the sapien window.

21.) last thing- most IMPORTANT THING, click the little block man up the top left of sapien, itll as u "r u sure, refeshing the index fioe shud only be done if new modles are added" or someghin, click yes, and wait for it to finish loading.
UR DONE.
