Hey!
Yes, personally I prefer my "bad guys" to have the same and/or similar weapons. I like to break out my Cobra troops in 8 man squads. Sniper with a Dragonov, Anti-Armor soldier with an Rpg (backup AKs74u), heavy machine gunner with with RPK heavy machine gun, One with AK-47 with "double drum" ammo magazine, 2 with AK74 with grenade launcher and 2 with AK47 with wood or folding stock. So there is some slight variation in the actual armament, but all come from the same family of weapons. With Vipers, use a combination of the NVR rifles and good mix of the new "modular" NVR (adjust the accessories on several of the weapons to fit the specific roles within the squad). Some of the "individual" characters get specific weapons (Cobra Commander the Megatron P38, Firefly the Famas w/ silencer, Baroness the Aug77, etc.).

"Regular Joes" most have M16s & "modular" M4s (in various configurations) and the new "modular" M14 EBR (again, in various configurations). Certain figures get "special" weapons (Snake Eyes with the new MP7 & Scimitar Sword, Gung Ho the new Multi shot Grenade Launcher, Flint the Combat Shotgun, Roadblock the Gatling gun, etc).

So a good mix of "standardized" and "customized" when needed...that's how I like to "gun-run" for my troops!
