WEAPONS
The CRT uses numerous specialised weapons not available to regular field agents.

M4 Carbine: The M4 Carbine is a successful and popular variant of the M16 Assault Rifle. The M4 is chambered for the 5.56 NATO round. the M4s in the CRT arsenal are currently equipped with Picatinny Rail Interfaces and ACOG sights as standard.

H&K UMP .45: The Universal Machine Pistol .45 is a Submachine Gun chambered in .45 ACP, and is one of several weapons available for Close Quarters Combat. the UMP is replacing the aging MP5s currently in the armory.

FN P90: The FN P90 Personal Defense Weapon is another Close Quarters Combat weapon available to the CRT. It fires the high velocity 5.7x28 FN Cartridge. P90s in the NCIS armory are equipped with Rail Interface Systems.

H&K MP7A1: An alternative to the P90, the MP7A1 is a Personal Defense Weapon chambered in 4.7x30. Like the P90, the MP7 is small and easy to conceal, but has a relatively spacious magazine.

 M1014 Combat Shotgun: The M1014 is a Semi-Automatic shotgun, manufactured by Benelli. This shotgun has a collapsable stock, rail interface system, and an 8+1 Magazine capacity. It is capable of firing standard 2.75" shells and 3.0" Magnum shells, fitted with either buckshot or frangible breaching slugs. It is not, however, capable of firing less lethal amunition.

Mossburg 500: The Mossburg 500 pump-action shotgun is a new addition to the armory, capable of firing less-lethal ammunition.

FLASHBANGS: Flashbangs are stun grenades that, on detonation, create a bright flash and a loud bang, disorienting targets.
