A regular infantry sergeant comes equipped with a chainsword and laspistol. The laspistol may be replaced with an item from the "Astra militarum ranged weapons" list.
Weirdly enough this list only has three entries, Bolt pistol, Boltgun and Plasma pistol.
Shouldn't lasguns be available as an option as well?

Oh never mind, my noob mind believed a "Boltgun" was the same as a "Bolter". It makes sense now so just ignore everything ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/728378/9423313.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/728378/9423313.page GMT IG Infantry sergeant options tac squads have boltguns).

You are correct that the Sergeant can only take those pistols or a Boltgun. This actually was the same in 7th ed as well. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/728378/9423342.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/728378/9423342.page GMT IG Infantry sergeant options

Ah yes I see that bolt PISTOL is its own entry...
This is weird...Why would a IG sergeant be able to grab a bolter but not a Lasgun? making it impossible for me to model the sergeant applicable :/]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/728378/9423350.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/728378/9423350.page GMT Re:IG Infantry sergeant options
Of course, since the Boltgun is almost free, you might as well take it. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/728378/9423655.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/728378/9423655.page GMT IG Infantry sergeant options
Presumably the idea is to prevent players from "hiding" the sergeant by making sure he has distinct gear.

Personally I'd let anybody who wants to give the sergeant a lasgun use it. It's not a big deal.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/728378/9423685.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/728378/9423685.page GMT IG Infantry sergeant options http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/728378/9423693.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/728378/9423693.page GMT
