Post; Something i've always wondered.

Hopefully i've put this in the right section, 'cause i'm not sure.

Okay, so you've got your rifle, side-arm, knife, and grenade(s) when you're a soldier, so when you go into combat or on patrol or something that simulates real life, how much ammunition are you given. Say you've got an M-16 and a standard 9mm side-arm, how many magazines/clips would they give you for each? What is your standard armament, like what is your particular piece of hardware? Do you have a choice as to what you take?

I know it is probably a silly question but i've always wondered.

Rich.
