Create an object that based on the direction of the weapon moves itself in that direction. This should get you started:
obj
  bullet
    New(dir)
      walk(src,dir,3)
    Bump(atom/A)
      // Damage check here

mob
  verb
    fire()
      new/obj/bullet(get_step(src,src.dir))

You should of course test more things in the fire() verb, but I think this is a good start.

Ahem, bumping posts is not nice, so please don't do that.

Does the example work? I see that you have usr.hp -= 10, but the Bump proc supplies an atom A as the bumped object. So you need to test if A is a mob, and then subtract 10 hitpoints from A.
Also, the icon and icon_state shouldn't be in the Bump proc. You can put it on top like all other objects.
