Did you have problems switching to, or switching away from the weapon? Also, if you have added the slot definitions to the keyconf lump, don't.

If you are playing with another mod that has a KEYCONF lump, then it will clobber your Weapon.SlotNumbers, and you will have to make your own KEYCONF lump.

No im making my own mod and im having troubles switching to the M16, when I pick it up and switch from it to my pistol and try to switch back to it its not even in the arms numbers, the game takes it like I have never picked it up.

Would you mind sharing some version of the mod?

From my experience using the keyconf method of defining weapon slots is considerably less prone to bugging out than defining slots through Weapon.SlotNumber. So I pretty much recommend that over the decorate property.
If you define through keyconf and things still don't work, then yeah, uploading the mod in question would be welcome.

The reason I use Weapon.SlotNumber is to make my mods play nicely with other weapon mods: two KEYCONFs need a third KEYCONF to reconcile them, but Weapon.SlotNumber is very unobtrusive. Unfortunately being nice sometimes means you get walked all over and need to patch in a new KEYCONF anyway....

Last time I tried running a Weapon.SlotNumber mod over a KEYCONF mod I ended up being unable to select any weapon whatsoever. With both mods being KEYCONF, only the weaponset from the last mod is selectable, but that's already a considerable improvement compared to walking around and trying to fight with A Big Nothing.
Plus, to be honest, once again from my experience, even if you get both weaponsets to work technically, they usually don't work well gameplay-wise(read: clusterfuck).
