Open your localization tool. Then under weapons make a scope with the first part of your weapon name (Exp. for rep_weap_inf_rifle, put rep.) then under taht put "weap" then add a key to that and call it "inf_rifle" or whatever.

Looks set up right. Make sure all the spelling is correct.

The localization of a weapon is its name without the underscores, so to localize it, it would be Force_Missile

No, "inf_" is always there if it's in the name of the weapon. You can try "inf_force_missile" but if the name of the weapon isn't cis_weap_inf_force_missile then it probably won't work.

isnt it
cis
_weap
_inf_force_missile
or
cis
weap
_inf_force_missile ?
because the odf name is cis_weap_inf_force_missile. in the text boxes you write anything you want, should only be the same.

No, this should be the order:

* represents a scope, anything under a star, or series of stars is a key

ROOT (not shown, but bear with me)
*weapons
**cis
***weap
inf_force_missile

Failing this, I suggest you go here:
