Apparently, there are major desyncs that happen that cause players to fire ranged weapons like the Crossbow or M1 Carbine with their fists. Even if they do this, they do not consume any of the ammunition they have loaded, so no crossbow bolts or bullets are actually being wasted.
Starting maps that take long to load (example: WDI20) might be causing this.
