Absolutely no personal weapons or non issue ammunition. I suppose.you could buy the speer or the newer issue federal ammo yourself and no one would be the wiser, but definitely nothing other than that.

All of the deadlined rifles were standard Colt M4's. Most of the rifles were deadlined due to "bent barrels" according to the inspectors. They dropped a little rod down the barrel and it wouldn't pass all the way through. These were labeled "no-go" and were thrown in a giant barrel, probably never to be seen again. Most of the rifles were under five years old and all had recently passed a qualification. Don't know how BP Agents can kill rifles that fast, but one thing they are definitely good at is breaking stuff.
Being a Fed. Gov. Employee same as Mil.... No Private owned weapons or ammo. If I was allowed to I would carry and use TAP or even 193 in rifle not 855 green tip, much less I'd rather use my own rifle consistent trigger unlike the A2 trigger group.
To the point my Duty rifle is deadlined due to lose barrel nut/ barrel. The worst part is it I have to turn in after shift and draw out before. About 6 months ago when I drew it out I found the barrel lose and reported it. My guess is a Someone had changed my rifle upper from a different rifle. There is contract maintainers to repair and inspection of weapons so I'm not allowed to repair it.
Having just a little insight into what they're up against down there, 24/7--God help them...and us.
CBP management sold their souls long ago.
They are M4A1's, with the happy switch...at least everyone I've ever used. I've heard there are some 3 round burst and semi's in the inventory but I've never seen one.
