What guns do they have in the marines?

Answer 1

Infantry WEAPONS

* M16A2 & M16A4 Assault Rifles - M16A2 is being phased out * M4 Carbine * M4A1 Close Quarter Battle Weapon (CQBW) * USMC Squad Advanced Marksman Rifle (SAM-R) * USMC Designated Marksman Rifle (DMR) * M40A1 & M40A3 Sniper Rifles * M82A1A & M82A3 & M107 Sniper Rifles * Mk 11 Mod 0 * Glock 17

M-14 Shotguns /10 gauge full-auto jackhammer * M870 12-gauge pump * M1014 12-gauge automatic * Mossberg 500/590 Machine guns

* M2 .50 Caliber Machine Gun * M240G 7.62 mm Medium Machine Gun * M249 5.56 mm Squad Automatic Weapon * M67 Hand Grenade (Fragmentation) * AN-M14 Hand Grenade (Incendiary) * Mk 141 Mod 0 Hand Grenade "flash-bang" * Smoke Grenade * M203 40 mm Rifle-Mounted Grenade Launcher * MK19 40 mm Automatic Grenade Launcher and the m10 bayonet The Marines use two automatic pistols, neither of which is made by Glock. The general issue sidearm is the M9 Beretta 9mm pistol.

Certain Marine special operators use the MEU(SOC), which is a heavily-modified version of the classic M1911 .45 pistol. The military is running out of M1911 frames that are suitable to use for this weapon, so they're in the process of buying an off-the-shelf sidearm.

Answer 2

The basic issue weapon of the marines is the m16 A-2 rifle.

The Marine corps has a bast array of weapons in its arsenal.

Answer 4

All Marines are taught in recruit training, "Every Marine is a Rifleman!" The weapon we are taught to fire in recruit training is an M16-A2. We're taught stock weld, eye relief, relaxation, breath control, trigger pull, sight alignment, sight picture before firing for the first time. During what is called "grass week" we undergo classes to teach us these things and other. Such as the characteristics of the weapon; using the acronym LMGAS: Light weight, Magazine fed, Gas operated, Air cooled and Shoulder fired. The weight of the weapon alone(w/o sling, bayonet or magazine) is 7.5 pounds. Loaded, slung and ready to fire the weapon weighs 8.79 pounds. It is 39.63 inches long. Muzzle velocity is 2800 feet per second(853 meters per second). It's max effective range on an area target is 262.48 feet(800 meters), on a point target max effective range is 1804.5 feet(550 meters). There are two firing modes for this weapon, automatic(3 round burst) or semi-automatic(single round shot). Set to automatic it fires 90 rounds per minute and on semi-auto 45 rounds per minute. Cyclic rate of fire is 800 rounds per minute; sustained rate of fire is 12-15rpm; semi-automatic rate of fire is 45rpm; and burst rate of fire is 90rpm. One magazine holds 30, 5.56 millimeter rounds. If you were to replace this weapon it would cost approximately $586. This weapon is manufactured by Colt Manufacturing & Fabrique Nationale Manufacturing, Inc.

Once you reach the rank of Sergeant(E-5) you are allowed to qualify on the range with a pistol. Unless you work with PMO(Military Police). They fire an M9mm. I personally, am a better shot with a pistol than a rifle, but a pistol isn't my weapon of choice, per say. I wouldn't say that the M9 would be any Marine's weapon of choice, but it is another widely used weapon.

Hope this answered your question!
