The US Secret Service equipped many powerful personal weapons to quickly neutralize the threat and protect the President.

US President Donald Trump on June 1 walked from the White House through Lafayette Park to visit St. Peter's Church.

These two gunners are part of the Anti-Attack Team (CAT), which plays an important role in the line of protection of the US president.

If the White House or the convoy escorting the US President is attacked, they will be the first people to open fire to suppress the threat, blocking the guards so that the guards can take the White House owner to a safe place, while

Secret Service CAT is classified as "special task", equipped with a variety of guns with strong firepower and highly customizable, only for special forces and not sold to the market, according to Ronald Kessler, author

The CAT member's basic weapon is the SR-16 carbine gun manufactured by Knight's Armament (KAC).

The standard SR-16 version has a 37 cm barrel, while the SR-16E3 model used by CAT has a short barrel barrel of just over 29 cm.

The grip of the SR-16 is adjustable in length to fit each person's hand size.

The pistol model used by CAT is the SIG Sauer P229 manufactured by Germany and Switzerland.

P229 was developed from the P226 model which is very popular with US Navy special forces.

In addition to rifles and shotguns, CAT agents are often equipped with a Remington 870 MCS shotgun (Modular Combat Shotgun).

The gun uses slash bullets, which can fire 12-20 small marbles in each firing, creating a wide area of damage at close range, especially suitable for targets not equipped with protective armor.

In sniper and anti-sniper missions, CAT often deployed gunner teams equipped with various sniper guns, ensuring the ability to engage all targets from near to far distances.

One of them will use a sniper rifle, a weapon currently selected based on the AX frame design of Accuracy International (AXAICS).

AXAICS can use a variety of ammunition sizes from .308 Winchester (7.62x51 mm) to .338 Lapua Magnum (8.6x70 mm), which are outstanding due to their high accuracy at long range, also the ability to penetrate

Sniper rifles have a low firing rate, but the range and accuracy are very high.

The other is equipped with KAC's SR-25 high-precision rifle, using .308 Winchester bullets and ACOG viewfinder.

This gun model is also favored by US special forces because of its durability and accuracy, less maintenance like the M14 sniper variant.
