All weapons have a state about them so some can be in better shape than others. If you pick up the same weapon you can break one down to some smaller parts which fit easier into your inventory and also take those parts to fix other guns in your arsenal. The demo had a gun that was firing a pretty spread out pattern but fixing it with parts from another gun generated a tighter concentration of bullets.
And a snip from the article at TeamXbox:
Once you finally leave the vault's protective confines, you'll be thrust right into the action. The combat in the game is best described as first-person shooting, but it's much, much deeper than your standard shooter. Since bullets are at a premium in most post-apocalyptic wastelands, trying to run and gun your way through the game is a pretty bad idea. Instead, you can use V.A.T.S. (VaulTec Assissted Targeting System) to pause the action and queue up your targets. You can target individual body parts, and you'll be told how likely you are to hit them. It's a great system, offering a much deeper experience than your standard shooter.
