I believe he said you would either be issued a M4 or provide your own AR type rifle. They will supply you with ammo.Why the focus on pistol? How many here wouldn't have at least one rifle of their own for something like this?

Agreed but things happen.Well to be honest a pistol is not that useful in a combat situation IME.
I drew my pistol twice in anger and never fired it. The average dude would be better served with more ammo or other kit.
I guess I would highjack my wife’s G45 I have a full retention holster for it.
As a non-combantant denizen, am I constrained to the Geneva Convention?The scenario is an invasion of the US mainland by a nation-state (China).

I’m leaning towards “does this look like ****ing Geneva to you?” in this scenario, but I wanted to throw it out there.

If my weapons need replaced I'm sure there will be many laying around to choose from and or parts. In fact if it's a prolonged war we will most likely be using our enemies weapons and ammunition.Dang, look at all the Glocks in the poll. Double the number the next highest. Hmmm...

One of the main reasons I chose the Glock platform years back when the need to move to a modern striker fired pistol seemed obvious. A gun the same as or compatible with the majority of guns, parts, gear, etc out there.
Seem like a good idea to have the most likely pistol you are given or pick up off the ground to be one you are very familiar with shooting?
A good idea for the provided or found pistol or magazines to fit in the gear you already have on your belt?
