Quick suggestion: Edit the post, select the error and click the "Code" button. It will stop [WeaponBehavior] turning into a link.
Whatever it is you're trying to get a WeaponBehaviour component from doesn't have one attached, so GetComponent returns null, meaning nothing. When you try to do something with nothing, you get a NullReferenceException. You'll need to post code to get a more definitive answer and solution to your problem.
A NullReferenceException when calling GetComponent means the component you're trying to find doesn't exist. Make sure the component you're trying to access is actually attached to the GameObject from which the script calling GetComponent is running.
If the component is inside a different GameObject, you have a couple of options. You can use GameObject.Find() to find the GameObject which has WeaponBehavior in it, or you can create an inspector-exposed variable to let you drag the GameObject onto the script from inside the editor. In case you don't know how to create a variable that's visible and editable from within the editor, here's how:
JavaScript:
var WeaponControlObject : GameObject;
C#:
public GameObject WeaponControlObject;
