Well, duh!!
I am sure most gangbangers armed by the Mexican Mafia are better armed then the cops running after then with handguns and maybe shotguns *(if they remembered to take them from their trunks). Anyone with a rifle with a scope if better armed then most cops. Swat and special teams are a different breed, but the typical beat cop probably has a Glock, Beretta, or a Sig pistol in their belt and no more.
