I talked to Zero about a similar system.
He told me about keeping the item information on the serverside(in .txt, .arc, whatever you want to use), and loading the data when necessary.

I figured whenever the player logged on, loading all their weapon data, and when information changed(new weapon, lost a weapon, so on and so forth), was the best way to make sure data is up-to-date. He also told me instead of clientr.vars, it would be best to load all the data into a player object.

The problem I had with that was I wasn't able to transfer the objects from the serverside(I loaded all the data into objects) to clientside. I never got to talk to Zero about that though.
