I live in the US and have contracted security for events before. Most of them are just an unarmed visual deterrent wearing a uniform and a big walkie talkie (you called it!). Around here armed security is often off-duty police officers making a little extra money off the clock.

As someone from the US: no, it’s not standard policy to outfit armed guards with flame throwers.
Interesting! Learned something new today.
