Well, companions CAN lose their weapons in a fight, just like when you shot a weapon of an npc he lose his.
If you take Veronica with you to Vault 34, for example, and give her Pushy you need to keep an eye on her, because when facing some thougher enemies there's chance he hits her weapon.
I was with Cass at one time in Quarry Junction and one Deathclaw jumped over her and hitted her weapon, All-American (with AP ammo). The gun was dropped and she started using her default weapon.
But if not in battle then the reason is entering one of the casinos. I'm on PC, the only casino who gives me trouble is Gomorrah, so I don't take companions with me when visiting.
All the other casinos never give problems.
I don't know how is on XBox and PS3, I read a lot of complains.
