No, it's not a glitch. They're pretty common.
boderlands.wikia.com has a list of all the guns in the game.

The text IN the gun info can be translated if I recall right.

Just so you know, they might seem cool, but they aren't actually very good. The main problem is the cooldown period. If you plan on using them, have several of them equipped at once so you can switch between them while the others recharge.

" @BeachThunder said:Well, even with a high Eridian proficiency they're still pretty crummy. Most are fairly weird/erratic (ammo bouncing off the walls etc...) and they're almost always electric (which means they're mainly just good against shields). Oh, and they slow you down too :P" Just so you know, they might seem cool, but they aren't actually very good. The main problem is the cooldown period.

Basically, there's no real reason to use them since there are plenty of much better weapons to use.
" @The_Laughing_Man said:Pretty much how I felt about them too. For each character I created, their Eridian proficiency never went higher than like rank 2." @BeachThunder said:" Just so you know, they might seem cool, but they aren't actually very good.
