The type of weapons a security guard should carry depends on their specific role, the environment they operate in, and the legal regulations of the area. Non-lethal options, such as pepper spray or batons, are often preferred for general security duties, while armed guards may carry firearms if they are properly trained and licensed. Ultimately, the choice of weapon should prioritize safety, de-escalation, and adherence to laws and company policies. Regular training and clear protocols are essential for effective and responsible weapon use.
