player_weaponstrip is a logical entity available in all Source games.

This entity strips the player of their weapons and/or suit.

Bug:In Portal and Portal 2, the player's weapon will lower and become non-functional, but will not actually disappear. Fixed in Portal 2: Community Edition.

Workaround:Fire a DisableDraw input to the viewmodel entity with a slight delay after triggering the weaponstrip. (This does not prevent later picked up weapons from appearing.)

Bug:If player changes the map after their weapons are stripped, the viewmodel of the last held weapon will appear but will be non-functional. This is fixed by picking up a new weapon. (not in )  (tested in: )

Note:In multiplayer, only the !activator is targeted. This means the input needs to be fired as a result of a player interaction, such as touching a trigger or pressing a button. In games with VScript, EntFireByHandle() can instead be used to fire the input with a specific player as the activator.
