XM148:
Attach an XM148 grenade launcher to the CAR-15 and you've got one formidable weapon. With the addition of the launcher, the CAR-15 magazine holds 10 fewer rounds, but those three grenades should more than make up for the smaller clip.

M21 Sniper:
In its search for a versatile sniper rifle, the US Army selected the standard M14 for its ability to provide a quick second shot, then added a modern telescopic sight and made other adjustments. The result was the M21, a semi-automatic sniper rifle with a 10-round box magazine.

Hand-Grenade:
This standard-issue hand grenade is effective against personnel and vehicles. Pull the pin and you've got three seconds to get some good distance between you and the grenade. Otherwise, you'll have bought yourself a quick trip to the infirmary--or worse.
