I say Shotgun. The Pistol and AR is the Battle Rifle put together, So I want the Shotgun,
since we havent heard anything about it.

Ar was rubbish, fun to use but rubbish to kill people with (like the needler but not as bad) and the pistol simply upsets the balence of the game, it is more powerful than most of the other weapons. So I reckon the shotgun should remain as it is and old favorite and works perfectly with the rest of the game.

I love the pistol because its bullets are armour piercing and explosive which is very important against certain enemies and vehicles, and it brings in a lot of tactical play in multi-player games when choosing which weapons to keep/use etc.

I also love the shotgun because its just one of those really satisfying weapons to use and the force of the impact and bodies flying is just pure fun and brutal. Sometimes you just wanna obliterate anything thats in yer way...ya know what i mean!

They had both better return or the covenant wont be the only ones waging war.

Shotgun... the Battle Rifle zoomed in is exactly like the pistol... so we dont need that And zoomed out is like the assault rifle, but with 3 shot bursts.

That is not a pistol dork, that's the SMG.

The pistol was a bs weapon, to powerful in comparison to other weapons. The AR is giving you the same thing the pistol did in a much nicer package. First the AR has 3 round burst which means accuraccy ++++ and then it has a single shot snipish mode which will definetly beat what Halo 1 pistol had. Did I mention you'll have 30 bullets in that clip? You didnt fall in love with the weapon it self, you fell in love with its 2 features, being strong and having zoom. Now you have strong, zoom, and bigger clip. Anyone whining about the pistol should hush until they use the AR.

There are gonna be like 35 weapons in Halo 2, a ton of new one's, im sure your not gonna miss one weapon.

The Pistol hands down.

I mean, Seriously, who wouldn't want to be Chow Yun Fat in John Woo's Hong Kong Action films. The game would be cool if you had the Master Chief dual wielding two pistols, while wearing a trench coat. Some people would say that the pistol was too powerful, but look at today's Desert Eagle (one of the most powerful handguns in the world), its more powerful than an Uzi, H&K MP5, and M-16 in terms of stopping power. Now imagine the Halo universe, they have had time to perfect that power. In the first Halo, I liked to pretend I was Dirty Harry; now in Halo 2, I want to be Chow Yun Fat.

Both the MA5B and the M6D. I won't even bother explaining why they should return because people are too thick around here and too closed minded. Simply put, both. And the M90 has returned. I'll leave it at that.

the pistol will most likely be back but not the one we are used too if you read FIRST STRIKE
theres a new pistol that (LOOK AWAY IF YOUV NOT READ THE BOOK !SPOILER!) the
spartan kelly used on the cammo elite(for some reason the cammo elites in the book have shields dont ask i dont know) and it only took about 5 rounds to knock out the shields and kill the SOB the size of the rounds on it are the size of a human thumb it will kick some covie ass

If there is a pistol that shots bullets the size of my thumb then I will go with that. Other wise I am going with the shotgunb.

yeah in the book the gun really kicks ass i think its almost 2 times the size of the pistol in halo 1 but i dont think that would matter to a spartan lol
