Can you name some popular guns used by undercover agents for something like drug trade stopping?

Like submachine guns and such, the smaller type (like the SMG in halo :)

An undercover agent is not going to use a sub-machine gun.


He is going to carry something compact that can be easily hidden. A lot of undercover detectives in California carry small .38 revolvers. Others might carry a compact semi-auto such as a Glock 19 (9mm), Glock 23 (.40), Glock 26 (9mm), Glock 27 (.40), HK USP Compact, HK P2000, HK P2000SK, Sig P239. They want something very compact and concealable but also something that can adequately protect them if they need it. If I were going to carry something in this situation it would probably be the .38 revolver. Police agencies don't really carry these any more so if someone happens to see it they won't automatically think you're a cop.
Reply:mp 5, and to correct the misinformation old fuzz gave you, 9mm, not .40 caliber is the most widely used round globally, also the m-16/ar15 is available in a .223 round as well as a 5.56. The .45 caliber round is sort of obsolete in these type of weapons,. Another possibility could be an Uzi, which also uses a 9mm round.
Reply:That depends on the country. Here in the USA, you will find two favorite sub-machine guns, the H%26amp;K MP-5, a 9mm gun and the M-16 (or the M-4) with a short barrel and a folding stock is another favorite, it can be chambered in 9mm or 5.56mm.





With handguns, the Glock 22 is probably the most popular LE gun now, in .40 cal. Others are the Sig Sauer, the H%26amp;K USP, the S%26amp;W M%26amp;P. The list is quite long. The .40 cal is the most popular caliber but many elite units are using 1911 style .45 autos.
