I got this working for dystopia, in the weapons Draw() function I turned off the EF_BONEMERGE effect (bone merge will only merge with the bone named in the w_ model, usually the right hand bone), then making the weapon attach to a point on the players back. Note: I used a hack in the baseentity code to set the m_iParentAttachment, rather than redoing the whole FollowEntity() call again, as the weapon is already following the player.
