How do Scripts Work?

So, I am fairly new to fallout 4 modding. Always a good start. Anyways, I created an improved basher perk that I have turned into a "Close-combat" perk, which adds damage modifiers and buffs to shotguns, much like what gunslinger and rifleman is to pistols and rifles. So, I got it to work, but one thing bothered me. I wanted to remove the "Rifle" tag from the shotguns in general, preventing both rifleman and "close-combat' from affecting shotguns. From what I know of scripts, this leads me to believe that I could use a script to automatically see if a shotgun has both the WeaponTypeRifle tag and the WeaponTypeShotgun tag, and drop the WeaponTypeRifle tag. But I don't exactly know how to write scripts in general. Could someone give some quick pointers on how to do this?

Shouldn't need to. Try just copy the shotgun weapon record to your esp, so it is editable and remove the rifle Keyword. Looks like Double barrel already doesn't have that keyword but combat shotgun does.

So, I have to apologize. I realized that half an hour after a made this post. I made that exact edit. Thanks for responding though!
