How should I go giving out magic weapons and rewards for battle?

The DMG has suggested wealth by level guidelines. I want to say page 135, but I'm not sure.
Basically add up the value of all the characters gear and see if it is close to the suggested amount. If it is, they are fine, if it's too high, then you may want to consider cutting back on the treasure a little, and if it's too low, throw them some extra loot next adventure.
Eventually, they will be back to the "right" amount and you can plan on how much to give by seeing what is suggested for the next level and awarding treasure appropriately.
