I was playing Half-Life, and look what i've found.
Why i can't kill this guard, like all the others?

Why?
Well probly 'cause he's not really an NPC in the game but rather some sort of part of enviroment - game-wise. Or they just didn't bother to give stats to him :D
And yes, I've tried to kill him as well, with all weaponry in my inventory ATM :D

Haha! Yeah, I remember that guy. Did the same thing too.
You can't kill him because it is, to all intents and purposes, one of the game's scripted sequences that doesn't take into account player actions. Any character in a scripted sequence cannot be killed by you. Even if it's a looping sequence like that one.
The MiB who follows your progress, for instance. There is a point at which you can shoot him, only to no effect whatsoever. That's just the way the game was. It's also true of Half Life 2 in places.
