As one of the most elite Special Forces units in the world, Delta Force stays on the cutting-edge of technology when it comes to small arms. That's not to say they don't use tried and tested weaponry, but older arms tend to come with upgrades like optics and munitions. While there still might be some classic small arms in use like the Colt 1911, there are much newer battle rifles and sniper rifles that employ better ergonomics and material. Here, 24/7 Wall St. is exploring the newest weapons to be used by Delta Force.

The Green Berets have built a reputation as masters of unconventional warfare since their inception in the early 1950s. This reputation comes from not only their training and strategy but also from the small arms they carry into the field. Every carbine, pistol, or rifle they carry is carefully selected for versatility and maximum combat effectiveness. These small arms have ultimately become part of the overarching identity of the Green Berets.

Israel Weapons Industries (IWI) produces iconic weapons including the Tavor, Galil, Negev, and Jericho, which are standard across IDF combat units and emphasize domestic manufacturing.
