  public int AmmoRec = 0;
  public int MaxAmmoRec = 500;

  void Start () {
      InvokeRepeating("Add", 0f, 5f);
  }
  
  void Add(){
      if (AmmoRec < MaxAmmoRec) {
          AmmoRec ++ ;
     }
  }

Well, you could start by watching some tutorial videos on coding to learn a bit about how IEnumerators (coroutines) work in Unity. First, you need to call StartCoroutine(Add()) -- that will run the coroutine (do this in your start method, NOT in Update()). Second, the coroutine will need a loop (such as while) to continue executing in a loop. Or you could use InvokeRepeating on any void method.
