Boone Weapon Glitch?

First time out of the vault
I gave Boone my service rifle to get rid of some weight in my inventory. He used it for combat, which was fine by me, I didn't care. But now, for some reason the rifle is gone. I didn't take it from him, that I'm sure of. And if it became broken from Boone using it, it would still be in his inventory, right? All he has now are a ton of 5.56 rounds I have no use for (no varmint rifle, guess I can sell them).

Can NPCs just drop stuff from their inventories or am I experiencing a glitch?
 
I'm not 100% sure of it, but I think they can drop a weapon.

I've had a couple of occasions where I was crouched on a hill sniping at enemies in the distance, and boone stuck the barrel of the AM rifle that I gave him right in front of my gun.

If it happens just the wrong way, and I'm using a powerful gun, he gets critically hit in the weapon and it gets destroyed (0 condition)

about 3 times now after having this happen, I've heard him say something along the lines of "This weapon is worthless" and then he drops it on the ground.

The first time it happened to me was during a pretty fast paced battle and I didn't realize he'd dropped the 5000+ cap rifle that I'd recently bought him until a couple minutes later. Luckily, when I went back to the area I was in and searched around, there it was on the ground broken to the point that it couldn't be equipped.
 
I am not so sure about that.

Boone was playing with Knock Knock (unique fireaxe) and basically used it until it was completely degraded. But he didn't toss it and I was eventually able to repair the weapon.

I would guess that he might have dropped the gun because he got shot or injured.
