If you get a pointer to the actor's gun, you should be able to use

Code:
ToHDFirearm(pointer):Deactivate();

To keep the gun from firing.

You would want to run through all MOIDs and grab MOs from those. Then check the RootID of the MO, make sure its ClassName is HDFirearm, and then Deactivate() it.

Code:

   for i = 1,MovableMan:GetMOIDCount()-1 do
      local gun = MovableMan:GetMOFromID(i)
      if gun.RootID == self.RootID and gun.ClassName == "HDFirearm" then
         ToHDFirearm(gun):Deactivate();
         break;
      end
   end


You don't need the distance check, or move over the 'gun' pointer over to a pointer named 'pointer'. Also, this script for for attaching to the actor holding the gun.
