How do I flip my 2d pixel character left and right with a different animation?,how do I flip my 2d pixel character left and right in a non weird manner?

So I’ve got my player to flip on not a weird manner but when I added the gun sprite animation when the player flips in creates a gap kinda thing I don’t know how to fix it I’m still kinda new at this programming thing,See I already have made it so the player can it can flip in not a weird way but when I added a gun sprite animation
It started to flip in a weird manner what should I do

You should try just rotating whole player ( parent witch children ) 180 degrees on Y axis. Make sure gun is a children of player and whenever you want to flip, propably checking Input in Update then do:

void Update(){
  if(Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.A) { // we flip
       transform.rotation = Quaternion.Euler(transform.rotation.x, 180, transform.rotation.z);
    }else if(Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.D)) { // we back to normal going right
      transform.rotation = Quaternion.Euler(transform.rotation.x, 0, transform.rotation.z);
   }
}

Yo sorry this is super late, I thought id help others out but there’s actually a really simple way

    private SpriteRenderer sprite;

void Start()
{
        sprite = GetComponent<SpriteRenderer>();
}

void Update()
{
        if (Input.GetKey(KeyCode.A))
          {
                        sprite.flipX = true;
           }

        if (Input.GetKey(KeyCode.D))
           {
                              sprite.flipX = false; 
           }
}
