US Navy’s Elite SEALs Complain of Weapons and ammo Shortages

The Navy SEALS, one of America’s most elite fighting units, are, for better or worse, running out of guns.
One of the United States’ preeminent counterterrorism outfits, the Navy SEALS are highly trained to conduct a wide range of special operations anywhere in the world.
But even the most skilled operative needs a working gun. Due to a short supply of weapons, however, commandos are forced to share rifles, passing them off to outgoing forces when returning from deployment.
US Representative Duncan Hunter says he’s been contacted by a number of SEALS who have complained about the issue.
“They want their rifles,” Hunter remarked. “It’s their lifeline. So let them keep their guns until they’re assigned desk jobs at the Pentagon.”
