  Can anyone identify the rifle that's being carried in the picture? Racked my brains and looked through guns.ru but can't match it.

  The Iraqi SWAT team, pictured here, rounded up 87 suspected insurgents in a citywide sweep of the south-central Iraqi city of Iskandariyah Oct. 18. An emerging elite unit within the Iraqi security forces, the SWAT team is playing a key role in restoring security and stability in Northern Babil province, where the 24th Marine Expeditionary Unit has been operating since July. The Iraqis live, train and operate alongside the MEU's Force Reconnaissance platoon. The combined force has carried out dozens of precision raids and cordon-and-knock searches aimed at capturing anti-Iraqi forces and disrupting their activity.

  Its SIG SG552 Commando, you play terrorist in CS, you'll get to buy it.
  Comes with a foldable buttstock.
  
  
  The above is just a picture of a model gun.

  In addition, they are also armed with Benelli M4s.
  Further in the back, i see a possible Mossberg M590
  
  Why do some have magazines in their rifles, and some dont?

  Your eye see wrong already.
  
  The commando is much shorter.
  What they are using looks more to be the full-sized rifle version.

  Gee...thanks, yes it looks like the SG550. I only use the P90 and the GPMG in CS so maybe that's why I didn't recognise it.
  
  And I thot the Swiss had strict laws regarding the export of weapons due to their neutrality.

  Hmm, that's a very good question.
  That's why it's SIG-Sauer.
  Sauer is a german company.
  Swiss designed, german made.
  
  Technically speaking, there is no GPMG in CS, unless you want to count Condition:Zero.
