It is a parenting issue, un-parent all of the objects; First clear all of their locations by pressing Alt-G, then parent the barrel of the gun to the camera (then move it to desired spot) next parent the empty to the Camera ​and move it to the desired spot. This should fix all of your issues- if not I can try again.

in the childrens object properties (orange box tab), repick the parent object in the relations section to update the coordinates.

this parenting issue is a major over sight since hot key or drag and drop dont function properly.
