Hi i wanted to ask if someone knows how to edit the base weapon names because i have been trying alot and where not able to find anything.
Thank you for your time and have a nice day. 
The names are drawn from a hash called HumanNameHash in the weapons meta files. So overwriting the hash with a new name should work.
Here is an example of renaming the Pistol to “Not A Pistol”:
AddTextEntry('WT_PIST', "Not A Pistol")
It results in this:
Here is a list of some of the weapon HumanNameHash's
