    You know, I've always pondered this - "Nothing dead can travel through time" thing. But something dead can travel through time, only if it's covered in human flesh.

    So why not make a Terminator with weapons/money/clothers loaded in a compartment in the gut that they can take out whenever they materialize? Those robots are soooo dumb!

    Having said that, wouldn't it be funny to see a Terminator travel and the endoskeleton get left behind? All that's be left would be the lumpy pile of flesh!

    They mess around with it too much as well. How come the T-1000 and the T-X can come back through time, given they're pure metal? My only thought on that was that maybe the T-1000 was covered in flesh and then cut its way out once it arrived, but we saw the T-X arrive and it had no problems. Could Skynet not build weapon exteriors out of whatever they're made from?

    The Sarah Connor Chronicles did have a Terminator with a gun in its leg, but that was really pointless - he might as well have gone into a gun store and bought one if he wasn't going to take one back that had lasers.

    Basically, it's all a bit random.
