I'm probably just not looking hard enough because I can't find this in the players handbook, but is picking up a dropped weapon in combat no action, an action, or a bonus action?
You get to "interact with an object" once per turn without spending any kind of action, which could be picking up an object (including a dropped weapon) or any of a whole mess of other things.
If you've already used your free object interaction, then picking up an object off the ground would be a Utilize action. You can also do it as part of attacking with it via the Attack action.

It depends what is the weapon and what you're trying to do with it.;
