See I kinda thought of the battle rifle as the new pistol, since it's clear already the battle rifle will be kinda the primary weapon in Halo 2. The assault rifle in Halo 1 was good for bonking people and that's about it....I would say the AR from Halo and the SMG from Halo 2 are more similar than the AR and the battle rifle. The AR and SMG are both high volume/low accuracy type weapons.
