well, I've used a "drop weapon" spell - but I dunno of any "take weapon" command.
you tell me, m8 (when the rep's comes flooding in)  :o


 :) UnitName Action ["Drop Weapon",unit,0,0,"weapon"]

Back in the old days, some of us used to use these spells to simulate the action :

Tomb Action ["REARM", NameOfCrate]; Tomb AddMagazine "m16"; Tomb AddWeapon "M16"; etc.  :P

The syntax for take weapon/magazine:

soldiername action ["Take Weapon",weaponsource,0,0,"weapon"]

• weaponsource - The name what has the weapon... eg. an ammo crate, vehicle or the name of a dead body ;)
  
• weapon - The name of the weapon type you want the soldier to take... eg. "m16", "FAL" etc. You can find a weapon and ammo list in the Editor's Depot (http://www.ofpec.com/editors/browse.php?browsewhat=1&category=1_3).

Take Magazine has exactly the same syntax as takeweapon... you'll just need to replace the weapon type with magazine type ;)

Happy Editing
