Have you looked at the sim file for the gun? I've never bothered, but I can only assume there is an "effect" entry for firing the gun in each gun's sim entry. That would be the obvious place to start.

So you find the effect. It has an ID, right? Use the search function in s3d to search for that ID. It will tell you what file that's in. If that file points to a tga or DDS, then you can see what the name is.
