I think it's a little wacky but not a deal-breaker.
After all, we're talking about a fictional universe featuring a vehicle that turns from tank to helicopter, a guy cloned out of DNA from people who have been dead for centuries, and featuring a military wherein enlisted personnel are trained and trusted to operate multi-million dollar fighter jets (in addition to their normal duties).

In Vietnam, tunnel rats didn't spend all their time crawling underground, they were still infantrymen. When it comes time to go VC hunting, they'd drop the ruck and primary weapon and head down with a flashlight and a sidearm. So I have no prob with his gear, although he should have had a pistol included. My original o-ring tunnel rat had Outback's legs, for the camo pattern and removable flashlight.

I've always thought that Tunnel Rat packing a mini-60 and a .44 Mag (or .357 Mag) revolver was a little ridiculous. Imagine what the concussion from either weapon in a confined space would do to your eardrums.
True tunnel rats in Nam were just orginary riflemen who drew the short straw enough times to be proficient at the task. A lot of the times a Tunnel Rat was never issued his own .45, he would drop his M16 and take an officers pistol into the dark. In my Joeverse, Tunnel Rat is rocking an M-4 with a tactical light and a .45. Old school. |

I wish i could equip my Tunnel Rat with a Calico w/mounted taclight, but there are no 1:18 Calico machine pistols out there (that i am aware of, i would be delighted to be proven wrong)
