 #pragma strict
 
 var EmptyInScene : GameObject;
 var weapons : GameObject[] = new GameObject[4]; // Array of Weapons
 private var curWeapon : GameObject;
 
 
 
 function Start () {
 
        
 }
 
 function Update () {
 
 if (Input.GetKeyDown("1")) ChangeWeapon(0);
 if (Input.GetKeyDown("2")) ChangeWeapon(1);
 if (Input.GetKeyDown("3")) ChangeWeapon(2);
 if (Input.GetKeyDown("4")) ChangeWeapon(3);
 
 }
 
 function ChangeWeapon(weapon:int){
 
 if(curWeapon){
  Destroy(curWeapon);
  }
  
  var NewObject : GameObject = Instantiate(weapons[weapon], transform.position, transform.rotation);
  NewObject.transform.parent = EmptyInScene.transform;
 
 }

You can. Create your weapons array, assign the weapons via the Inspector (or any other means you like) and then get your information from the array when you display or fire the current weapon.

If you know how to use arrays, you know how to get it. If you don't know, learn how to use arrays. The Script Reference would be a good start.
