Yes, I wouldn't even mind if the weapon "floated" in that spot. Brute force characters didn't really "holster" their weapons either and a few more weapons on the map isn't going to push the polygons past their limits.
It could also be handy in team play as well if you can still exchange weapons in Halo2 or in the formation of strategy. Seeing that your friend has the rocket launcher or the sniper rifle let's you make a plan on the fly. Such as, "Davey, slip over there behind that rock. I'll use my battle rifle to get them to head this way with the hog then once they start trying to keep me down with the LAAG you get him."
