It was the M16A2 for most, fixed carry handle and every kind of optic mounted on top you could imagine. Some older varieties of the CAR-16. Three or four months before we deployed the end of August 1993, I received my first MP5 which I stowed in a compartment in the back.
When you say women fighting, I assume you are referring to the Skinnies? I saw a lot of women and kids armed with a variety of small arms, some I wasn't able to identify from my aerial platform, nor was I inclined to slow down and take a closer look.

That's Deltas guns. People like Paul Howe have said they had the early Aimpoint red dots. Also from pictures, the Rangers carried M16A2.
Out of that battle, the variable power combat scopes became popular with the tier 1 units. LAV said that was when they experimented with the Schmidt & Bender scopes. He said he was still carrying his Colt 723 and Aimpoint (2000 I think) when they were hunting Scuds in Iraq during Desert Storm. That was only a couple years before Somalia.

Riots are like sports, it's better to watch it on TV at home.
It's hard to be a ACLU hating, philosophically Libertarian, socially liberal, fiscally conservative, scientifically grounded, agnostic, porn admiring gun owner who believes in self determination.
Chuck, we miss ya man.
