[Counter Strike] Why are elite police officers allowed to paint their weapons in such flamboyant manners and why do they need to buy them before each mission, even when a nuclear power plant is in danger?

Every soldier is given a sort of requisition budget before they go into the field, determined in part by how well they did on previous missions. They can use this budget to buy weapons and other gear based on personal preferences, tactics, and the mission at hand.

As far as the weird camo goes, that's up to the individual soldier. It is used in part to mark a weapon as theirs. Some like to be tactical and use patterns that would work as actual camouflage, but considering the nature of the majority of their missions that is usually unnecessary. This leads to soldiers basically showing off and getting to use their designs for a variety of more aesthetics purposes.
