· 4 spare magazines for the Colt M4
Probaby should make that an even dozen. Four mags is nothing in a real firefight.
· 4 spare magazines for the SIG Sauer
If you are talking a 9mm P228, I would go with two 13-rnd, four 15-rnd and one 20-rnd magazine as extras.
· Colt M4 - Rifle
If you are going to give out M4s, might as well put a Modular weapon system on it and give them a ACOG, reflex sight and tactical light.
· H&K MP5SD6 - Silenced SMG
An M4 with a suppressor will do the same job without adding another weapon. If you have subgun obsessed players, give them a UMP9 (cheaper) or PDW class weapon to better fill the role between pistol and carbine.
· Rugged 20cm stainless steel knife, with built-in wire-cutter
A good 10cm folding fighter and/or multitool are must haves.
· Silencer for SIG Sauer P228
Silenced pistol requires an extended threaded (or QD) barrel, which means modifying the stock gun or issuing a second barrel. Might be easier to leave the quiet work to the carbine/PDW.
· 10 Green chemical light sticks
A few infrared chemlights can come in real handy when going up against forces with out NVDs.
· AN/PVS 7 night vision goggles
Go for the PVS-14 monocular instead. Much more flexible.
· Binocular, 12-20x zoom
High mag zooms are big, heavy, hard to stabilize, have a narrow field of view, and are expensive. A pair of 8x32mm compact is much handier for covert surveilance, paired with a 20x spotting scope for long range surveilance will give you a better package.
· Pair of thick, heavy kneepads
Do not forget the elbow pads for the low crawling.
· Shoulder holster for the SIG Sauer P228
Simply make it a concealment holster so the character can choose their preferred type, and add a tactical holster for when they have black kit on.
Other stuff to consider;
ASP tactical baton
E-Z Jim car opener
Hooligan tool
flexible handcuffs
tactical goggles
laptop and/or PDA
tactical shovel
etc.
