So you need help with bodies basically, I pressume : )
I'm still learning too but I will try and help anyway I can ^^
Theres always the handy dandy
Big guide to drawing the body tutorial
As well as this arm and Hand tutorial: Arms and Hand tutorial
Oh and heres some tutorials for feet, guns and eyes:
feet Eyes guns

Nao im no expert with guns or weaponary but im kinda getting there with hands/legs/feet/arms lol I find it helpful to look in a mirror and look at my own hand or ask for my friends to model their hands/feet for me. I think the key thing is to practice, practice, practice and when u get sick of practice practice some more lol
and oh study study study, espcially anatomy you will probably get sick of hearing everyone say it but it actually helps and they only repeat it so much to help you
Heck im still learning so dont worry im on the same boat as you lol
and eyes, wow there are so many tutorials and so many different types of eyes I don't know where to begin ^^;;
I say find an eye style that suits you best and work up from that, let me see if I can find a picture with a bunch of different types of eyes for you to start with; oh looky i instead found a some what tutorial maybe this can help
many eyes
But dont worry everyone has problems with eyes,hands and feet and i bet weaponary too so your not alone, good luck though ^^

Going along with what coolness said, the best thing you could do for your weapon work is too look up references and to use them to draw your weapon from that. Remember that the open hand should be approximately the same size as the face and a gun is usually a bit bigger than the hand depending on the type and caliber.

I hope you find the info you need, good luck!

Oh and deviantart is a good place to look for people that have provided gun photo references, just make sure they know you are using their references.
