SWAT vs. Infantry
Really what we are handed, as soldiers, is the M4/M16. After that they give us IR/Visual lasers, M68 (Aimpoint). I was given an ACOG once. Sometimes we would get lights like the M3X. Other than that most of the gear we would use was perchased personally or our supply was able to get it for us. And this is all depending on what the unit commander thinks is necessary for the mission.
S.W.A.T. Members carry a variaty of weapons and gear. What every they buy and what thier department gives them.
Although I was not infantry I was Artillery doing Infantry work my first tour.
