Question

How do I bind the mouse 4 and 5 button for left and right hand ?

Community Answer

You can bind them by opening the developer console, write [bind "key name" "action name"], keeping the quotes but losing the brackets. right hand : cl_righthand 1 and left hand : cl_righthand 0.

A very good idea about the different actions and the name of the various keys. Take a look at your config.cfg file inside your cstrike folder for understanding.
