Visible Icons in Ace

[Fablerede]

So in RPG maker XP there was a script that made your character "hold" an icon and slash with it in battle etc. I was wondering if there was a way to do that in Ace, and not necessarily in battle, but even if I could just show it even not animated etc that would be nice.

I have an event where one of my characters fires a gun and i Just wanted him to hold my gun Icon for a moment, so what i'm asking is, "is there a way to do that without creating a new chara set where he is holding a gun"
