[Half-Life Series] Why do the Overwatch still use standard human kinetic weapons when pulse weapons such as the AR2 are more effective/cheaper?

Me and my buddies always figured the challenge was importing material from outside our universe. ALSO: Could someone confirm/deny the existence of the AR3? It's spooking everybody in my bunker.

Actually, pulse weapons are not cheaper. What with the human economy in shambles (read: nonexistent), there is no one to stop the Overwatch from simply raiding every army base in existence and taking every gun from their storerooms. Human kinetic weapons are found in abundance on earth. Why produce weapons at a small cost when you can just /take/ weapons for no cost?
