hook.Add( "PlayerCanPickupWeapon", "NoPistolGiveFists", function( ply, weapon ) if ( weapon:GetClass() == "weapon_pistol" ) then -- if the weapon they are trying to pick up is a pistol ply:Give( "weapon_rpg" ) -- give them an RPG weapon:Remove() -- remove the one they were trying to pick up return false -- don't give them a pistol end end )
