What it does

Hiding the weapon gives a clearer view. Players often set it per weapon in class configs, for example hiding it on rocket launchers but keeping it on melee.

Use it in your game

Type it in your own game console: turn on the developer console in the game's settings, then press the key under Esc. To keep it, put the line in tf/cfg/autoexec.cfg.
