have you tried
this removeWeapons "NVGoggles"; ?
that's what I've always used
maybe verify your game cache? I have no problem removing them.

I've tried it. Recived the same "no entry" error. I have also reinstalled the game.

NVGoogles

Google is the search engine... :)
Try with "Goggles" instead.

What Chairborne said XD

Well, that was emberossing. Sorry.

If in doubt, scour the Config browser (usually in CfgWeapons). You'll be surprised how useful it is for finding classnames and such.

There is also the thing of them not just being called NVGoggles anymore, they have set colors for different factions.

yep, I believe they are "NVGoggles", "NVGoggles_OPFOR", and "NVGoggles_INDEP"
