Array of firearms
The special forces team use an extensive array of firearms. The highly-accurate and versatile M4A1 Carbine is the standard issue weapon for SEAL operators, while pistols are usually carried as backup weapons. Weapons choice is always mission-dependent and the SEALs have a wide array of firearms from which to select the precise ones.
SEALs use handguns such as the 9mm SIG Sauer P226 and the MK23 MOD 0 45-calibre offensive handgun with a suppressor and laser-aiming module.
They use rifles such as the carbine automatic M4A1 5.56mm and the AK-47. They also use shotguns, machine guns (MK43 and M2HB), and the HK MP5 9mm submachine gun series, among others. Add to that list sniper rifles such as the M88 .50 PIP and the M-14 sniper rifle, along with grenade launchers, mortars and AT4 anti-tank rockets, and SEALs can choose a weapon to fit the specific task at hand.
