If only a couple of guys used a first-person pronoun that the rest of their school doesn't use, I would say they would sound weird in any country, wouldn't you? This obviously couldn't happen in too many langauges, though.
As to the meaning, I would say that they just want to sound like adult men a little too soon.
You can use 私 if you want to. Just don't say I didn't tell you when you go to Japan and gets laughed at for using it.
