Why don't we get weapons in the 'Alone' mission?

After the gunfight erupts in the Graves betrayal cutscene, we see Soap get shot in the shoulder by Graves and he escapes down a hill while firing his pistol at the Shadow Co. Operators.

Once we get to the 'mission' part of Alone, why does it not give us a gun? I mean, why would an SAS operator ditch all his gear, including flashbangs and grenades, and most importantly, his gun? What kind of well-trained soldier ditches his gun when he knows he's going into hostile areas? The worst part is, after surviving the hellish mission(btw took me 15 tries), he just takes out a pistol and starts shooting the goddarn Shadows. WHERE THE HELL WAS THAT WHEN I NEEDED IT? The dev who made that certainly did NOT want us to succeed, nor did he not want us to rage.

As a younger teen(13M), it's really hard to get the games I want thanks to sky-high prices.

I've always never bought paid-for games, most of them have either been free or only a few dollars.

Now, I've started playing Call of Duty recently, but Warzone by itself is quite boring after a few weeks, so I decided to introduce myself to the MW series(the reboot version, pls don't judge).

I was gonna start off with a bang(MW), but why the hell is it 100 dollahs with TAX?

Seriously, these things ain't cheap! And as a 13 year old, obtaining 100 dollars is really hard(bcuz the minimum work age in Canada is 14), and my family and I recently moved, so money is sort of tight in my family right now, so my parents cannot give me a 100 bucks to buy a game I want.

Luckily though, I was able to scrape some cash together and buy MW(the game was awesome af).

But, the hard thought that I had just spent 100 dollars on a game did not sit well with me, and I ended up returning the game after just 3 missions(im that broke).

I really wish that Xbox would offer more sales like Steam does, because if that did actually happen, the console wars would step to another level. Thank the lord Xbox is not doing Dynamic Pricing, or else things could get even worse.

Ps. I'm thinking of switching to Steam soon, I feel as though the experience would be much better.

I'm thinking of switching from a Samsung A16 to an iPhone, should I do it?

So earlier this year I got a Samsung A16 and it was alright for the first few months, then I started to notice the flaws. First, the screen was huge and I couldn't even tie my shoes while having it in my pocket. Second, it keeps freezing and restarting randomly. Finally, it takes TWO times to frickin get to the home page by tapping the 3 lines. These are all reasons why I want to switch, but I fear that I may have just wasted my money.
