A new bug appears since Build 265. This is not a huge bug, of course, but it's still a bug, so I report it. :D
Some Marines have their own Rifle; I don't know if they carry a Shotgun to be honest; invisible. You cannot see their weapon, if you're in the opposite side / team, or in spectator, no matter. Sometimes, it can be very funny in few original situations, yeah I have no screenshot to prove it except the next one, not sure that is very visible.

I saw that on many pcws, not sure if something appeared on my console when I saw that: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=255639557

Small bug, doesn't really important on the gameplay, sure. Oh, btw, this weapon doesn't need to be the Kodiak Rifle, the classic one is enough I guess. Just be careful next time you're in spectator, that can happen.

    Probably, some shader were not compiled so the entire weapon model can't be drawn. You can post the log.txt or wipe the shader cache completely. I would suggest doing so after each update, just to be sure that no older caches are in the way. At least, I don't have such problem neither other people seem to. Otherwise, there would be a plenty of messages after the release.

    Usually things like this is fixed by alt-tabbing (assuming your in full screen)

    How often does this happen?

    Nah, I'm not the only one, I often have this bug now in pcw, not for every Marine indeed I can see btw. There's no a plenty of messages because you have to be spect and focus on a player, and this is not a very important issue, I just noticed it, that's all.

    I searched on the log.txt, as you said, and I found that:

    "Rifle:GetAttachPointIndex(fxnode_riflemuzzle): model is nil
    Rifle:GetAttachPointIndex(fxnode_riflecasing): model is nil"
