It could just be the man's name, or it's a Nameplate server and that's just what happens.

You're too far away for the game to register their gun and/or skin, or they aren't holding one.

It can also be attributed to their skin. I've seen sniper display with just a ghillie suit and no guns, and I've seen it display in a bandit skin holding an AS50.
