There is an exclamation mark right before the Input.GetKeyDown part, it means “if not”. So what you should be doing is :

if(Input.GetKeyDown(KeyCode.Mouse0))
{
muzzleFlash.emit = true;
lightone.active = true;
lighttwo.active = true;
lightthree.active = true;
}
else{
muzzleFlash.emit = false;
lightone.active = false;
lighttwo.active = false;
lightthree.active = false;
}
