First queston: We have a gate with a couple of uniformed guards--highly trained and expecting trouble. What kind of guns would they have that would signal they're expecting trouble and want to be prepared?
Second question: There's a patrol boat guarding the shoreline. Patrol boat stops a fishing trawler that's gotten too near the shore. What kind of guns would the security patrol have?
In this case, the gate goes to a house owned by a member of the Royal Family. No one knows he's a member of the Royal Family, so the security is an oddity. A spy is trying to figure out who lives in the house. He sees first the patrol boat guards, and then the guard shack and is thinking, "Who is this person? These guards have a lot of firepower."
Question one: I would think both handguns and automatic rifles, maybe an AR15? I'll let the rifle guys/girls elaborate on that because like you, my experience is with military (USMC and M16). I've shot the AR15 though (father has one) and it's a nice weapon. Looks intimidating too. As for handgun, of course I'll go with a Sig Sauer P-220.
AR15:

Question two: My thinking is the same for these guys, and maybe an RPG or something crazy! LOL I'm not a boat person though so Summonere/BDurkin (and others) can best respond.
