Your problem is that you’re trying to activate/deactivate a prefab, instead of an instance of that prefab.

var primary : GameObject

If I’m right, you’ve assigned your primary weapon prefab to this variable from Inspector.
As I’ve said in my first sentence, activating/deactivating prefabs isn’t what you want to do.

Assign your primary/secondary weapon object which is in the scene hierarchy to your variables, NOT primary/secondary weapon objects in the Project folder.

Your if statements should look like this:

if(Input.GetKeyDown("1")){
   primary.active = true; 
   secondary.active = false;
}

if(Input.GetKeyDown("2")){ 
   secondary.active = true; 
   primary.active = false;
}
