the vet sergeant has the power axe and a combat shield and looks alot like a young Lysander.

sorry im getting off point

anyway

ther veterans go like this

1: 2 chainswords and a bolt pistol holster
2: 2 bolt pistols
3: 2 bolt pistols but with them pointed upward and his head is turned to the side so as to peer around a corner.
4: bolt pistol and chainsword
5: grenade hand and bolt pistol
6: power axe and boltpistol

now as one can obviously see a few of these models have a number of weapons they usaully couldnt. ie 2 chainswords and 2 boltpistols.

if i treated them all as having 1 close combat weapon and 1 bolt pistol aside from those with power weapon or close combat shield is this still ok?
I would say this would be fine, so long as you take step to model them. I.E. for 2 chainswords, have a bolt pistol holster (check! you done did it!). The only other thing is to make sure on your two bolt pistol model you inform your opponent beforehand. I'm not sure this woudl be tourney legal (dual pistols), but it will look very nice!
