I have to own some of it as I went out to meet my wife at a party after my shift last night and came home semi-stupid.

It's okay man. You came back and explained what you said which I've got to say is very big of you.
Sorry I flew off the handle myself about that.
As alot of guys have accuratly said your quest is for more than the "Latest and Greatest", but that wouldn't hurt providing your supply chain can provide all the extremely necessary parts BEFORE you need them. There is nothing worse than a broken gun and no funds for parts.
A good idea would be to find all the LE supply channels that you can find and make a note of what they have an excess of in relation to the weapon system that you are seeking.
You can't simply decide to go with anything that a civilian owns such as a Noveske, Daniel Defense, or even a LWRC rifle. They are usually swamped with orders by civilians on top of military personnel for orders, and you should pick a method of supply that gives you and your department carte blanche. This is essential to keep your armory up and running.
If you don't have a supply section then you might want to make it a point to your superiors to invest for it, and if you can, your department. If you already have one then you should invest time with them. I have done a lot of work for my soldiers when both me and my supply section were on top of my section's and my soldier's needs.
Also try to ask for demo weapons for your department to try out. Disregard any idea of how a weapon looks(ignore terms like "badass" or "tacticool"). Do research on what has consistently been battle proven for the military. Most of the time rifles such as that have gone through more rounds than any civilian could put through them in a comparable time.
Surpressors are the same thing. You need something BATTLEFIELD reliable as well as a good supply chain to back it up in case it goes down.
There is nothing worse than telling your boss that your team is down and can't accomplish it's mission, over something as stupid as broken parts.
Oh, and don't be worried about some crazy idiot who lives in a log cabin and has too many guns, and I won't worry about you coming to steal my guns. LOL.
If you need any more help then send me a PM.
