CHOICE OF WEAPONS

[HOOPSTAR09]

DO SEALS GET TO CHOOSE WHAT WEAPONS THEY GET TO USE ACCORDING TO PREFERENCE ON
ANY PARTICULAR MISSION OR IS IT DICIDED BY YOUR UPPERS. IF YOU DO GET TO CHOOSE,EXACTLY
HOW LARGE OF A ARSENAL DO YOU GET TO CHOOSE FROM FOR YOUR PRIMARY AND SECONDARY
WEAPONS. CAN YOU GUYS BUY PERSONAL HAND GUNS FOR USE IN THE FEILD? I KNOW SEALS TRAIN
SHOOTING DIFFERENT WEAPONS FROM ALL AROUND THE WORLD, BUT ARE ALL THESE WEAPONS
READILY AVAILABLE FOR REGULAR USE? SORRY IF IT SEEMS LIKE A LOT OF QUESTIONS BUT IT'S
REALY ALL ONE QUESTION. THANKS, FUTURE SEAL, OUT.

SEALS WILL SELECT THE WEAPON THAT MEETS THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE MISSION. THEY HAVE A CHOICE - WITHIN REASON AND WITHIN THE GUIDELINES SET DOWN BY THE TEAM CO, OR THE PLATOON COMMANDER AND CHIEF. IF THEY ARE GOING TO GO INTO A STRUCTURE, THEY MAY TAKE MP5'S, OR M-4'S. BUT THE BREACHER WILL WANT A SHOTGUN. SAME WITH AN OP IN OPEN TERRAIN - SOME MAY WANT M-14 FOR LONGER RANGE SHOTS...BUT OTHERS WILL STAY WITH THE M-4. SIDEARMS ARE STANDARD ISSUE AND IT WOULD BE DUMB TO TAKE YOUR OWN SIDEARM INTO THE FIELD IN THE EVENT YOU LOSE IT AND BEAT IT UP.

Mark (Bud/s 170, ST-3, SDVT-1, NRST-1)

Could you explain what all that means?

[Accomplice]

Let's have some fun guessing:

Bud/s 170 is the BUD/S class
ST-3 is SEAL Team 3
SDVT-1 SEAL Delivery Vehicle Team 1?
NRST-1 Navy Reserve SEAL Team 1?

zozeph -

Accomplice is correct in the meanings. My post here is entirely different nature -

If you are not, nor were ever a SEAL, please remove the trident pic by your name. Thank you....

Doug how can he be a SEAL if he dosn't know the meanings. A SEAL would know because his job invovles maybe being in one?
