Wow, this is an old thread, but I just saw it in the Lounge and thought I'd respond...When I entered on duty with the US Border Patrol in 1982 the official rifle to be carried on patrol was the Remington Model 760 pump in .308 Winchester. It had no special treatment and was no different than any seen being carried by a hunter after deer.
