Force AI to equip item from their backpack?

[Lineman 3]

For example: AI has sawn-off shotgun in backpack. What would I place in a trigger's On Activation to equip the shotgun?

something like this maybe (untested):
 

if ( "BAF_L85A2_RIS_SUSAT" in backpackItems Your_AI)then {
Your_AI addMagazine "30Rnd_556x45_Stanag";
Your_AI addWeapon "BAF_L85A2_RIS_SUSAT";
Your_AI removeItemFromBackpack "BAF_L85A2_RIS_SUSAT";
};

change classes names as needed

Another solution would be this:

_AI action ["TakeWeapon",backpackContainer _AI,"hgun_P07_F"];

If the AI has a P07 in the backpack he will first play some default "take" action and then equip the pistol, if currently no other gun has been equipped.
