The US Navy SEALs Use Over 100 Weapons, Some Date Back to 1911.

The US Navy SEALs are among the most elite Special Forces units in the world, and it comes as no surprise that their choice of firearms reflects their expertise in the field. These soldiers choose their weapons based on operational need and flexibility, with an incredible arsenal to choose from. In their operations SEALs use anything from sniper rifles, side arms, shotguns, and everything in between. Here, 24/7 Wall St. is taking a closer look at what weapons the US Navy SEALs use.

To determine the guns used by US Navy SEALs, 24/7 Wall St. reviewed guns cataloged by Military Factory, an online database of military vehicles, aircraft, and arms. We ranked the guns according to when they entered service. We included supplemental data on the type of weapon, maximum effective range, and the caliber or ammunition used by each gun.
