A character is told to drop all his weapons, or is frisked. He lays down the shotgun, takes the pistol or pistols out of their holsters, and drops them onto the ground. Then the gun from the shoulder holster... the smaller concealed pistol in the ankle holster... the extra magazines... the hunting knife from his belt... the combat knife strapped to his leg... the switchblade... the tear gas... the butterfly knife... the grenades... the shuriken... the broadsword... the bazooka...
Yes, in comedy it always escalates until it ends with a bazooka, or an RPG, .50 cal machinegun, chainsaw, surface-to-air missile or something else large and improbable. This clearly comes from Hammerspace; if we see where it comes from, it's always pulled out of the inside of the pants. On rare occasions, it'll end with something tiny like a slingshot.
Quite often, the disarmed character will have one more small weapon they kept concealed on their person anyway, secure in the fact that with the large number they gave up already, nobody would even think that there was more.
In more serious situations it can go one of two ways.
Number one: a security guard has searched out each weapon (or had intelligence on it) and has been actively confiscating them. When he's done, the improbably armed fellow volunteers one more holdout, to the guard's shock.
Number two: a companion with a powerful sense of honor (or a knowledgeable foe) gently 'reminds' the Walking Armory about that one extra piece he 'forgot' to surrender to their hosts. The prompter gets a sour look from the holder, but the last weapon is surrendered anyway.
The baddies' look of horror grows more pronounced as a deadly little pile is built in front of them. We look on in amusement or incredulity. Occasionally, the Disarmer will give the disarmed a certain look, usually with a raised eyebrow. The supposedly disarmed will then give up the rest of his weapons, which is usually just as large a pile as the pile already on the ground.
If it's a relatively serious show, this is often used to boost a character's badass quotient. If it's a comedy, it's often used to highlight someone's Hyperspace Arsenal. Though usually restricted to comedy or comic scenes, a character whose Extended Disarming reveals that they are a badass killer with a vast array of small, realistically-concealed weapons can make for a moment of squirming unease; particularly when they inevitably recover their former arsenal.
It doesn't necessarily have to include hammerspace or unlikely materials, either. Having a dozen and a half realistically concealed weapons on one's person, especially if they had up 'till then appeared to be unlikely to carry any weapons, certainly counts.
The reverse of the Lock-and-Load Montage. Unavoidable when you're a Walking Armory. Not to be confused with Fake Arm Disarm. Often a subtrope of Overly-Long Gag. May happen at a Metal Detector Checkpoint.

Spider-Ninja: After agreeing to meet with Nick Fury on behalf of her family, Petra is asked to remove her weapons. Nick seems to relax a little as she reluctantly hands over her kama and web-shooters...then tenses up again when the fourteen-year-old opens her jacket and pulls out half a dozen shurikens and four kunai. He doesn't seem surprised however, but more concerned about whether or not that was all she was carrying.

Cowboy Bebop: In "Darkside Tango", Faye Valentine demonstrates how she took down a notoriously well-armed bounty by dancing the tango with him, and surreptitiously removing various guns, knives and a knuckle duster — which she then uses to knock him unconscious.

In The Spirit Thief, when Josef is put under house arrest, he's asked to surrender all of his weapons. It takes him thirty minutes to get all the knives, shorts swords and other blades out, and when the guards give him a pat-down just in case, they find four more weapons he "forgot". And even then he keeps his magical BFS with him, as he's the only person capable of moving it.

The Ranma ½ anime series tends to take Mousse's abilities as a Master of Hidden Weapons well past the logical conclusion. In one filler episode, Ranma, Ryōga, and Mousse have all gotten themselves chained to a steel ball about eight feet in diameter that is actually a bomb. Ranma and Ryōga are forced to go searching through Mousse's robes to find the key to the chains, and by the time they find it there's a six-foot pile of stuff on the ground.

In the first Redwall novel, Cluny is asked to leave all his weapons outside before entering the abbey for a parley. After he finishes, Matthias points out that he knows that Cluny is capable of using his abnormally long tail as a whip, and asks him to bind it around his waist so he can't attack anyone with it during the parley. Cluny complies.

Honor Harrington has demonstrated both serious variants on this trope multiple times when meeting with people who are not enemies, but don't accept armed visitors.
In Field of Dishonor, her bodyguards are asked to surrender their weaponry when they accompany her to a duel since Manticoran law forbids the presence of armed supporters of either participant during a duel. She gently reminds their leader of his "forgotten" holdout pistol.
In War of Honor, Honor is visiting an Andermani admiral with a (well-founded) paranoia of assassins. She and her armsmen are asked to turn over their weapons, which they do. When their hosts are satisfied they're all disarmed, she pops the ammunition cartridge out of the gun built into her prosthetic arm — the one that the Andermani scanners didn't detect and even her armsmen didn't know about.

Miss Congeniality had Gracie, after walking awkwardly in a beauty pageant dress, finally lets out a defeated growl, pulling a series of pistols, spare magazines, and even a pair of handcuffs out of thigh holsters and hidden spots all over it. Her stunned aide exclaims, "What, no armoured car?" Gracie replies flippantly, "That would be in my other dress." (She then ups the ante by trying to hide donuts in the dress at the end of the same scene.)

MythBusters: During the MacGyver special, Adam and Jamie are given a series of challenges based on the show. Just before the challenge begins, they're searched thoroughly for tools and other contraband. There were a lot of items on them. About the only "tool" they got to keep was at least one set of steel-toed boots, which allowed Adam to reshape a light bulb filament to use for picking a lock.

Re: Cutie Honey: Natsuko has one during her Turn in Your Badge scene. After dumping a cubic meter of weapons on the table, as she's walking out we see her pull out a last pistol (strapped to her thigh) and blatantly tucking it into her shoulder holster. The entire sequence takes about 30 seconds max.

In Ah! My Goddess, tiny Ninja Hikari has equally-tiny (and equally-ninja) Kodama remove all her weapons, resulting in a pile of weapons a good three inches high. (Given that the two of them are only about six inches tall, that's saying something!) In the end, it turns out to be a distraction, as Kodama gets the drop on her with a single knife she kept hidden.

The Matrix: Played with in the iconic scene when Neo and Trinity walk into the offices of whatever vaguely-defined yet menacing government department the Agents work for and Neo sets off the metal detector. A bored security guard holding a handheld scanner starts the usual spiel asking him to "Please remove any metallic objects [he is] carrying; keys, loose change, belt buckle..." but instead Neo just lets his coat hang open to display a truly absurd amount of automatic weapons, which gets much the same point across. The guard can only respond with "... Holy shit!" before getting flattened with a palm strike.

In the 1987 version of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, the turtles have surrendered to Shredder and Krang and are ordered to hand over all of their weapons. After handing over their normal weapons of two katanas, two sais, two nunchuks and a bo staff they are taken outside by foot soldiers and supervised in unloading the turtle van. They proceed to unload enough weapons to form a pile half as big as the van is. And bear in mind that internal shots of the van show that everything is stored in compact compartments with lots of internal space for the turtles and several friends to stand up in. Further played with, in that later in the same episode the Turtles get a convenient distraction and they proceed to apparently pull holdout weapons from literally out of their asses.

Lady Slings The Booze, from the Callahan's Crosstime Saloon series, has an opening scene where private detective Joe Quigley must disarm before the butler will let him see an important client. He produces his .45 ... and his sap and brass knuckles ... and a switchblade ... and after the butler insists one more time ("We are running late, sir"), he adds a .22 from an ankle holster to the pile. "The only other weapon I have is attached," Joe adds. "But I promise not to use it."

A version involving food showed up in an episode of Cowboy Bebop. Spike steals a hot dog from a lady carrying groceries, who lets him have it since he hid it in his mouth. He happily eats it and proceeds to empty his pockets of various snacks that he had stolen from her.

Whateley Universe:
Ayla 7 ("Ayla and the Great Shoulder Angel Conspiracy"), chapter 5. Ayla has a Hyperspace Arsenal Utility Belt, and was asked to show all his hold-outs. He put in a bit too many in the simulation computer, and they wanted to verify he had them all. He did. Eventually, he was accused of having more weapons than Batman, and was only missing the bat-launcher, and the 500 feet of cable. Ayla goes with Crimefighting with Cash, and bought that utility belt specifically for the Bigger on the Inside feature.
Jade, meanwhile, decided to play Mary Poppins, with her floor lamp (lit), flowered hat, and full-length mirror!

In King of the Hill, paranoid neighbor Dale Gribble began stripping and removing his concealed weapons. (Why isn't important here.) At least ten guns and various other deadly items later, Dale is sobbing in his underwear. The pile is then shown having a nasty-looking knife added to it.

Parodied in Brain Donors when Jacques is required to empty his pockets in the police station. As this is an homage to Harpo Marx and his bottomless pockets, it's less a display of weaponry than an exercise in general surrealism, ending when Jacques pulls out a rubber foot, looks surprised, looks down at his (off-screen) feet, and promptly falls over.

Parodied on The Big Bang Theory when Leonard forces Sheldon to hand over all of the portable gaming devices that he has concealed on his person to keep him from getting bored while watching Penny perform in a play.

Rather than one man with lots of guns, Riddick has several people with a few guns. The three antagonists (Riddick and the leaders of two rival Bounty Hunter teams) have a meet so they can negotiate a way off the planet. As they walk towards each other in Slow Motion, they drop their various rifles and edged weapons to the ground. Of course Riddick is backed up by his loyal doglike-alien, one mercenary leader has his sniper covering them, while the other has a concealed pistol in an ankle holster.

In Fallout: New Vegas, there are certain areas that require the player to relinquish all their weapons save for holdout weapons that they can hide on their persons. This could mean that the player is forced to relinquish a ridiculous number of armaments such as various rifles and pistols up to rocket launchers and Super Sledges. Followed by a solid five minutes of sequential "<item> received" messages as you leave the area and are given all of your stuff back.

Her identical twin cousins, extremely well known mischief makers, begin hinting at their plans for pranks that night. Their mother, well aware of their antics, orders them to empty their pockets. The girls then proceed to unload a pile of fireworks several times bigger than they are including several bombs and a dragon-shaped cannon.

In A Brother's Price, the Whistlers are going to meet the Queen Elder but can't go armed into the palace. Eldest politely informs the majordomo that there are rifles in their luggage, and they disarm. Summer carries one six-shooter and three knives. Corelle carries no knives but two six-shooters and a derringer. Eldest has as many knives as Summer, as many guns as Corelle, and also carries two pairs of brass knuckles and a wire garrote. The majordomo is unmoved until Jerin surrenders his single derringer and knife, at which point she's quite startled.

Dungeons & Dragons:
Usually justified, since due to encumbrance penalties, players aren't in the habit of carrying weapons they don't think they'll need. A high-level character might toss four or more daggers in a single round, and a one-minute battle is ten rounds. Replace daggers with throwing axes, or one-shot pistols, or whatever, that's still 40+ weapons.
Even if you don't abuse the encumbrance rules, there are plenty of ways to hide obscene amounts of weaponry. A Portable Hole, for example, is a ten foot deep, six foot wide hole that can be folded up into the size of a handkerchief. (Aside from storage, it can also be used to make temporary holes in walls.) Then there's the Bag of Holding, the largest version of which is equivalent to a 10×10×10-foot room inside but will fit on your belt. Take how much shit the average college student has lying around in his dorm room, then take out anything that's there for his comfort (since there's no air in the bag) and allow him to fill that up too, and you have a good idea of exactly how useful those things can be.
There's also Heward's Handy Haversack, which has two small side pouches of holding alongside the main part of holding and automatically moves what you want to the top, which the Bag of Holding does not do, a handy situation if you have a bunch of things in it and need one or another specific weapon at a particular moment.
Unsurprisingly, there's a build in 3rd edition that optimizes this trope. Quick Draw lets you draw a weapon as a free action, Iaijutsu Focus lets you deal extra damage with the first attack you make as you draw a weapon, and Fleshgrinding weapons stick in the target and keep doing damage. Combine the three, and you can get a character who draws a weapon, embeds it in someone, draws another weapon, stabs them again... a total of 15 times in 6 seconds.
Of course, special rules aside, there's absolutely NO reason why you can't simply play this trope completely straight, especially if you have a tendency for your character to be Crazy-Prepared.
Asking any high-level Artificer to remove all their magical items will always take a long time, as most artificers try and have at least a basic magic item in every possible slot. That means headgear, cloak, armor, weapons, wristbands, rings, gloves, boots, belt, any magical bags, scrolls, wands, and if he's especially good, his pants.
Most high-level Fighters are no better, largely due to the fact that they have to carry silver, cold iron, and adamantine weapons for various damage reductions, some that deal slashing, piercing, or bludgeoning damage, with at least a few types of elemental effects added, backup weapons, and cheap expendable ones for oozes that you wouldn't want eating at your good stuff, a dagger or shortsword for use while grappling, and some form of ranged weaponry, plus a shield, and that's just the various things they use to hit people, disregarding the trinkets and doodads they doubtlessly also have somewhere on their person. Critical Encumbrance Failure is a lot less of a problem when you're The Big Guy.
The Master Thrower prestige class more or less invokes this trope — just from the example picture from the book (seen here◊), which carries at least thirty small bladed weapons between what can be seen and what can be inferred from symmetry.

A Thing of Vikings plays this reasonably realistically with trained spy Heather nic Oswald. Upon being asked to come on a diplomatic mission—officially as a maid, unofficially as a spy and backup—she demonstrates that she not only carries at least half-a-dozen knives on her person (with the last one concealed someplace that only her boyfriend normally sees it), she can throw them with enough strength and skill that they all stick out of one of the roof pillars in a space smaller across than the palm of her hand.

Reilly, Ace of Spies provides a rather understated, yet hilarious version. When Reilly and Savinkov attend the government hearing in Whitehall on their failure to overthrow Lenin, the aide at the front desk asks if they are carrying weapons. Reilly puts his Luger on the desk, while Savinkov pulls out a revolver and a Colt automatic. Then, after a brief pause, he makes a "Hang on a tic, forgot something" motion, and pulls a hand grenade out of his coat pocket.

The World of Darkness generally has a number of versions of this per splat, but the cake pretty much goes to mages and vampires:
Vampires have the obfuscate power, which allows them to conceal basically anything they want on their person, including things where that is physically unlikely... but doesn't fool things like metal detectors. So any check-point before a meeting tends to involve one of these.
Mages have Space, which lets you put a bazooka into a waistcoat pocket, and Matter, which can result in the caster pulling literally infinite throwing knives or ammunition out of their pocket, creating it on the fly. While they can only really be searched or called out on this by other wizards, they also have the Duel Arcane, which can take the form of a competitive extended disarming scene to demonstrate who has the bigger arsenal without actually firing a shot. The Forces and Prime versions of the Duel Arcane are also a more metaphorical version of this.

Fallout 2: One of the Optional Sexual Encounters leaves your items scattered over the floor. Unless you stored them all beforehand (by, say, giving them all to party members beforehand), you are going to spend some time picking them up (even large amounts of the same item — except, thankfully, money — have to be picked up one at a time). If the player has used an inventory editor to make everything weightless, and is therefore carrying much more stuff than the programmers anticipated he ever could, this can crash the game.

Babylon 5: A Call to Arms: When the thief Dureena arrives on Babylon 5, the weapon-detector beeps at her. Chief of Security Zack Allen politely asks her to turn over her weapons. She pulls a sort of bladed ring off one finger and drops it on the table in front of him. "All of it," Zack says coldly. He then watches in bemusement as she produces a dozen or so bladed weapons ranging from a push-dagger to a short sword and puts them on the table, finishing with a wire garrotte that was concealed in her belt.

Related; the Three Barons Renaissance Faire in Anchorage, Alaska (which could probably match any one episode of Avatar: The Last Airbender for being in sore need of trope rehab) has this as a Running Gag, with Mistress Innocence Widowmaker of the Merry Fellowship of Fools, Troubadours, and Storytellers, in Association with the Assassin's Right Ruthless Guild Hall, It's a Corporate Thing, You Don't Wanna Hear It. She carries an increasingly large number of knives each year — including one underneath a massive dragonfly-print dress. Every year, she's told to disarm for whatever game the peasants use to attract people to the fight show, and every year, she pulls knives off her belt, sleeves, hair, and other areas — before inevitably being called out by her guild master, who "has good information she's got one more." She starts rolling her dress up... And the Magistrate tells her to just keep that one so the show stays within a PG rating.

In a different variation, in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City during one mission, Tommy Vercetti must break a prisoner out of the police station. When he goes inside he has to pass through the metal detector, and even though it only actually takes a split second, the player's entire arsenal gets laid out implying how much time Tommy would have needed to unload everything. If the player had one weapon of each slot, this would include; a melee weapon (from a screwdriver to a chainsaw), grenades, a handgun, a shotgun, a submachine gun, an assault rifle, a sniper rifle, and a heavy weapon (flamethrower, machine gun, or rocket launcher).

On an episode of Squidbillies, Early is being disarmed by the sheriff and produces a pile of weapons the size of his house. This from a creature no more than a foot tall. Among the arsenal are roughly 30 sawn off shotguns, several hunting knives, a razor brimmed hat, and a slingshot-style grenade launcher made of shotguns (yes, you read that right).

In Bakemonogatari, Senjougahara keeps a ridiculous amount of school supplies on her person as weapons, and Araragi makes her drop them all before she can meet his mentor Oshino. Official art shows her holding out her skirt, with the supplies falling from god-knows-where.

Fallout:
Fallout 2: One of the Optional Sexual Encounters leaves your items scattered over the floor. Unless you stored them all beforehand (by, say, giving them all to party members beforehand), you are going to spend some time picking them up (even large amounts of the same item — except, thankfully, money — have to be picked up one at a time). If the player has used an inventory editor to make everything weightless, and is therefore carrying much more stuff than the programmers anticipated he ever could, this can crash the game.
In Fallout: New Vegas, there are certain areas that require the player to relinquish all their weapons save for holdout weapons that they can hide on their persons. This could mean that the player is forced to relinquish a ridiculous number of armaments such as various rifles and pistols up to rocket launchers and Super Sledges. Followed by a solid five minutes of sequential "<item> received" messages as you leave the area and are given all of your stuff back.
Likewise, in Fallout 3, the player is stripped of all their equipment when entering The Pitt for the first time; they regain it after winning in the Gladiator Games.
In the New Vegas: Honest Hearts DLC, you aren't automatically disarmed, but you do have to reduce your load to 75 pounds (or 100, if you convince someone else in the caravan to carry some stuff for you) before embarking on on the trip to Zion.
Inverted in Dead Money. When the player finishes the DLC and goes to leave the area they started it from, all the items that were taken away when they left the Mojave will be given back. It can take several minutes for the game to go through all the "Something-or-other added" messages.

The disarming scene in The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers occurs in the novel, as well, though for a different sort of comedy. In the book, Aragorn has already had Narsil reforged into Andúril (which did not happen until the third film), and refuses to give up his treasured heirloom and trusted weapon... until Gandalf offers his sword. Gimli and Legolas agree after that, and point out that theirs will "keep it company". Gandalf gets to keep his staff, despite explicit orders from Grí­ma Wormtongue because these four strangers seem like honourable types, and even the guards hate him.

Defenders of the Earth has an episode in which the heroes (Flash Gordon, Mandrake the Magician, Mandrake's bodyguard Lothar, and the Phantom) have to disarm when passing a robotic security checkpoint. Lothar disgorges a surprising number of weapons, goes to pass the checkpoint, and is stopped by the robot sentry. Lothar, looking aggrieved, surrenders some throwing knives he had hidden in his vest.

The Office:
Lampshaded by Michael in his improv class. He had the habit of simply walking into a scene and shooting everyone with an imaginary gun, much to the annoyance of pretty much everyone else present. The instructor eventually tells him to hand over all of his guns, and Michael proceeds to mime removing at least a half dozen firearms from varying places on his person.
Although he didn't carry the weapons on his body, this trope still applies after Dwight maces Roy and is forced to get rid of the weapons he's hidden around the office. Cue a long series of shots of him handing over shurikens from the filing cabinet, a sword from underneath his desk, and so on. This happens again when Dwight duels Andy.

As they try to evade the Green Lantern-hating locals, a businessman offers them transport in exchange for payment. Hal pulls out his car keys and cell phone, Kilowog pulls out a handful of bugs, and Razer produces an improbably large number of knives and shuriken.

The Final Fantasy XV chapter plays it a little straighter; Lunafreya points out that "Lucis believes in a Choice of Two Weapons or more", and the nuances of a Lucian arsenal allowing several characters to give the poor guy a pile of weapons each. It gets to the point when Noctis drops six different weapons on the table and prepares for more, the guy just lets him go in without the full disarmament (the Wallbreaker Wave is in effect, but the point stands).

We see them drop their guns, badges, handcuffs, extendable batons, radios, etc. When she suddenly has to leave, Eastwood says, "Dammit, now I have to put all that shit back on."

Mad Max:
Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome: Entering Bartertown, a guard tells Max: "Leave your weapons here, it's the law". A twenty-five second disarming sequence follows. The weapons check man is duly impressed. He keeps his fly-swatter though, which turns out to have a knife hidden in the handle.
A different take on this trope appears in Mad Max: Fury Road, when Max removes the many weapons Action Girl Furiosa has hidden in the cab of her War Rig. As in Thunderdome, one gets missed — a dagger hidden in the gearstick.

In Hitman 2: Silent Assassin, if you drop all weapons in an enclosed spot to, say, pass through a metal detector unnoticed, you'll drop: The two handed non-concealable weapon, a Beretta 9 mm, the same with a suppressor, a Tokarev (Russian handgun), a Desert Eagle, a .357 Python, 2 hardballers, the same with suppressors, a sawn-off shotgun, a machine pistol, a kitchen knife, a combat knife, and a scalpel. You can still keep: the .22 silenced handgun (probably made of titanium, since it doesn't trigger the bleeping), the fiber wire (for strangulation), and the chloroform. Made worse than other examples, since you have them in a tuxedo, and that's supposed to be a realistic stealth game!

When Mat in The Wheel of Time series is asked to disarm before entering the holy city of Rhuidean, he begins pulling throwing knives from all over his outfit, finally removing one last knife he'd meant to keep from a boot with a sheepish look. Even the warlike Aiel are mildly impressed (since throwing knives can be hard to retrieve in the middle of a fight, this makes a bit more sense than when the trope is done with guns).

At the end of Outlaw Women, Doc tells The Gunslinger Peyote Pete that the wound to his shoulder is going to slow him down, and that he should give up his guns. Pete proceeds to pull more than half a dozen hidden firearms off his person and lay them on the table in front of Doc. He then does a mental count and pulls up his pants leg to reveal a derringer stashed in his boot. Because his arm is in a sling, Doc has to pull it out for him.

In The Boys in Company C, the drill sergeant is berating the new inductees who are being drafted to serve in Vietnam. As he comes across one unassuming-looking civilian who is being told to turn over all unauthorized items — "contraband" —, he picks on him and says, mockingly, "And what have you got?" In response, the man pulls out, and slams on the table, a huge switchblade. Suffice to say the sarge has considerably more respect for him after this.

Downplayed in "Involvement" when Doyle is told to Turn in Your Badge. He proceeds to dump his warrant card and portable RT set on Cowley's desk, then ejects the magazine and chambered round from his Walther P-38 before placing them on the desk as well.

In The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers, Aragorn, Gimli, Legolas, and Gandalf are stopped before being given an audience in the hall of the Rohirrim. Aside from their primary weapons of a sword, an axe, and a bow, they have on them at least half a dozen each of secondary weapons such as small utility axes, daggers, combat knives, and so on. Gandalf only hands over his sword, and in the end gets to keep his staff, quite possibly the most dangerous weapon of them all and the thing Wormtongue wanted taken in the first place — because he played up the "weak old man" angle to fool the guards. note Although it's implied the guards knew full well that the staff was magical, and they were just hoping he'd use it to free their king. When the company do make their move, the doorward (Háma) keeps most of the other (good) soldiers out of it. A few of them still attempt to stop Gandalf, but Aragorn, Legolas, and Gimli are able to hold them off without weapons.

On Get Smart, when Max and Siegfried meet each other to negotiate, they each agree to lay out their weapons. For every gun Max produces, Siegfried matches it. When Max pulls his switchblade knife, Siegfried says he doesn't have one, so Max pulls a second switchblade for him to toss in. After the negotiation is complete, the duo sit back down to sort out which weapons belong to who. Max produces a suicide pill, and invites Siegfried to try it ("Go on! They aren't habit forming!"). Siegfried indicates a "Suicide Ring", and when Max expresses astonishment and asks how it works, he responds, "Through my wife. If I take it off, she'll kill me." The "forgot about a weapon" angle is done when Max pats Siegfried on the chest in a friendly manner, and Siegfried tells him, "Careful, that's my exploding wallet," before realization sets in and he adds it to the pile.

In the Babylon 5 movie A Call to Arms, Action Girl Dureena does this when she's told to remove all her weapons before boarding the station. While she does produce an amusing number of weapons, it's slightly more realistic as they're all small knives that could be reasonably hidden. When she's done, Zack Allen gives her an amused "Thanks."

In the UPN sitcom Good News, a preacher challenges the gang that has walked into his church to give up their weapons, and it works. As he passes by each gangsta, they drop a gun into his collection plate. When the preacher gets to one member, he hands over a gun, then pulls him back to turn over another gun, then a sawed-off shotgun, and finally a hand grenade. When it's finally the leader's turn, he opens his coat, assembles a bazooka and drops it into the preacher's arms. The combined weight of the guns finally causes the preacher to fall to the floor.

In Wolfenstein: The Old Blood, B.J. Blazkowicz has to unload his weapons so that he can go undercover as a waiter. This takes twenty seconds, and it only shows him unloading roughly half of his weapons because you can dual wield every single gun in the game if you choose.

Boston Legal:
Denny Crane was asked if he could appeal to the gun lobby. He proceeded to whip out a gun from his jacket. That was funny. It got better when he pulled out successive guns, each more ridiculous than the last, and then he went into his suitcase and got more.
In another episode, he's being arrested and the officers pull no fewer than 8 guns off his body. This was above and beyond what he was carrying in an earlier incident not 5 minutes ago from the viewer's standpoint. He also had this propane thing that wasn't legal (but we don't get to see it).

Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End: Elizabeth Swann undergoes an Extended Disarming. The scene starts with some degree of realism — sure, she was carrying a lot of guns, but that was standard practice in those days because you got only one shot out of each of them, and female clothing of that time period had lots of places to conceal things. The bombs raise a bit more of an eyebrow, but then she reaches down the back of her pants and (after some illustrative fiddling around) pulls out a blunderbuss. Even Barbossa (who knew she was armed to the teeth) looks surprised/impressed by the last one.

Nuns on the Run has a scene where Eric Idle's cohorts meet with some Japanese Yakuza types. The cohorts demand the Yakuza remove all their weapons, and so they collectively produce a small pile of knives, cleavers and machetes. One Brit motions with his gun and says something like "Come on, let's have the rest," whereafter they add about twice as many more blades.

Criminal Minds: "The Wheels on the Bus" (Season 8, Episode 8) has a non-weaponry version. Garcia asks Rossi how he unplugs, and he tells her to hand over her phone, her tablet, her other phone... and then she hands over her third phone when it promptly rings to alert him there's another. Given that Garcia's role on the team is "technology wizard" and some of the honestly terrifying things she's done with computers in one episode or another, anything with an internet connection could conceivably be categorized as a weapon in her hands.

Codename: Kids Next Door:
In "Operation: E.N.G.L.A.N.D.", a Cutaway Gag shows Numbuh One empties out a pile of weapons over twice as big as him while trying to get through airport security.
Numbuh 2 also suffers this in "Operation: A.M.I.S.H." when he is forced into hiding in Sector "A", amish country, when a mysterious force is abducting Kids Next Door scientists, much to his extreme displeasure, and he can't even use one weapon to defend himself if he is found. Took him one hour to hand over all of his weapons to the operatives in charge of the sector.

Ultraviolet: The heroine's Hammerspace arsenal is scanned by a security system, which begins to show two very long rows of guns. It tries to give a count before finally giving up and saying: "... Many." Notable in that these guns were not actually removed, so she quickly begins to put them to use.

In the Prince Roger series, when Pedi Karuse goes to negotiate with a gangster she takes quite a while to remove the various weapons she's carrying, both actual weapons (mostly blades of various lengths) and improvised weapons (such as a 20-cm long nail file for her horns). While Pedi is fond of her blades, the implication is that she's doing it at least partly to stop the guards from realizing that she doesn't actually need weapons to beat them up.

Most high-level Fighters are no better, largely due to the fact that they have to carry silver, cold iron, and adamantine weapons for various damage reductions, some that deal slashing, piercing, or bludgeoning damage, with at least a few types of elemental effects added, backup weapons, and cheap expendable ones for oozes that you wouldn't want eating at your good stuff, a dagger or shortsword for use while grappling, and some form of ranged weaponry, plus a shield, and that's just the various things they use to hit people, disregarding the trinkets and doodads they doubtlessly also have somewhere on their person. Critical Encumbrance Failure is a lot less of a problem when you're The Big Guy.

In Dragon Age II, if you decide to make Isabella your paramour (or just talk her into a quick roll in the hay) you don't get the normal, romantic build-up; the two of you bust through the door to Hawke's room mid-embrace, falling all over each other. You each pull away your base weapons; then some backup weapons (which are never used in-game); and then another knife; and something else, and then you FINALLY make it into position on the bed... At which point Hawke makes an uncomfortable face, and Isabella removes a blade from between her legs. Of course, at no time do either one of them remove any actual clothing.

In the Stargate Atlantis episode "The Hive", Ronon Dex removes a succession of knives from about his person while the team is attempting to escape from a cell — prompting the question from his surprised team leader about how many knives he has on him. His answer: "How many do you need?" Minutes later, as the camera shows a proliferation of knives embedded into wall opposite their cell and Ronon pulling yet another out of his hair, Sheppard remarks, "You must have a hell of a time going through airports."

The Final Fantasy XIII chapter runs on Rule of Funny (to the point of having multiple versions of Lightning and Yeul go through reception). Most of them hand them over with just technical details for the poor sap doing the disarming (i.e. XIII!Lightning warning him to keep his fingers from getting caught in her gunblade's mechanical bits). Some of them try to sneak weapons in discreetly (Serah's bowsword gets through because it's Mog at the time). The guy has a detector for people who claim to have no weapons, and ends up scanning three different Yeuls; when a fourth Yeul arrives, he just lets her in. Snow hands over his gloves just to make a point.

MacGyver:
Recurring villain Murdoc is meeting with his superiors at HIT, and has to pass through a metal detector first, which reveals that he's carrying multiple weapons on his person that he has to remove. Being as good as he is, he manages to slip a knife though just to prove that he doesn't play by the rules.
In the Season 1 finale, MacGyver is pitted against a master assassin. Confronting him relatively early in the episode, Mac is able to best him in hand-to-hand combat despite his numerous concealed blades. After the assassin is arrested, it is shown that he had many other knives and weapons on his person. And they still missed a poisoned needle he concealed behind a fake scar.
"The Assassin" features the aftermath of an Extended Disarming, with a table full of weapons and Mac commenting that guy was a walking arsenal. He notices the assassin is still wearing his watch. Examining the watch, Mac discovers it contains a charge of plastique.

The Lord of the Rings:
In The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers, Aragorn, Gimli, Legolas, and Gandalf are stopped before being given an audience in the hall of the Rohirrim. Aside from their primary weapons of a sword, an axe, and a bow, they have on them at least half a dozen each of secondary weapons such as small utility axes, daggers, combat knives, and so on. Gandalf only hands over his sword, and in the end gets to keep his staff, quite possibly the most dangerous weapon of them all and the thing Wormtongue wanted taken in the first place — because he played up the "weak old man" angle to fool the guards. note Although it's implied the guards knew full well that the staff was magical, and they were just hoping he'd use it to free their king. When the company do make their move, the doorward (Háma) keeps most of the other (good) soldiers out of it. A few of them still attempt to stop Gandalf, but Aragorn, Legolas, and Gimli are able to hold them off without weapons.
A similar scene occurs in The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug when the dwarves are briefly locked up by the elves. Amongst other things, Fili carries a lot of knives. To the point where the guards are about to shove him in a cell and still find another one. Then when they make their escape, Fili produces a weapon they've missed. Inverted for laughs with his brother Kili:

In the Belisarius Series, a Malwa bodyguard spots that Belisarius forgot to hand over a tiny knife he uses to sharpen quill pens. They let him keep it after Belisarius comments he could probably "kill a chicken with it, after a desperate struggle," and the bodyguard says "the chicken would win." It doesn't get used as a weapon, but still comes in handy later.

The Big Easy: While entering the police station, one of the plainclothes officers who turns out to be the Big Bad is asked to remove all his weapons. Various pistols, a shotgun, a truncheon, and finally brass knuckles are removed. The officer in question remarks, "And if that don't work, I spit on 'em."

In one episode of The Sentinel, Jim and Blair go to meet with an evil rogue CIA op. When they meet he scans them for bugs, and forces them to remove all their tracking and listening devices one by one, including the super-secret ultra-advanced new development one that they had been assured was completely undetectable. In retrospect, Blair probably would have done better dropping a trail of bread crumbs.

Deadpool is famous for pulling out a convenient weapon out of seemingly nowhere. One time where he actually used this trope (returning a large amount of weapons to other characters), when asked how he carried all of it, he simply stated, "It involves a lot of lubricant."

Full Metal Panic!:
Sousuke is ordered to disarm during a hostage situation and produces enough weapons out of his school uniform to arm a small battalion, plus heavy weapons. Cue severe freaking out of said hostage takers, and a prompting of "Where the hell did you keep all that?!" He later pulls out a detonator.
Kaname has a similar reaction when she asks for her own non-lethal weapon in FMP: The Second Raid and Sousuke dumps a large pile on the table, ranging from stun guns to tear gas.

Weapons-crazy Officer Volvo Saigo of Kochikame is this when he has to be disarmed realistically carrying a full array of firearms, knives, and grenades under his clothes including his underwear. Without his weapons, he's a complete coward.
