Wouldn't you use the [url=http://maurits.tv/data/garrysmod/wiki/wiki.garrysmod.com/indexcdb2.html]ENT:Touch[/url] hook and run what you want in there. Since it returns the entity touching you can do something like this:
[lua]function ENT:Touch( ent )
if ( !ent:IsPlayer() ) then return end
-- If the item is a weapon:
ent:Give( self:GetClass() )
-- Then remove the entity
self:Remove()
end[/lua]

So what exactly is the problem? Does the entity not spawn? Does it not give people stuff?

making it not just go to your weapon bar in stand it goes to your inventory
