Tell us what picture it is, because it doesn't work. The answer is probably no though. The Carbine is the equivalent to the BR, and the Battle Rifle is a 2-handed weapon. So I doubt the Jackal is holding a Carbine. Jackals can only hold one handed weapons.

That jackal's arm is inside the needler. And the light blue on the bottom matches this.

yea its a needler. look at the barrel of the carbine. its long and slender. the barrel the jackel holds is kinda fat.

the closest jackal has either a needler or plasma rifle (which i doubt though) the other one has a plasma pistol.

The tip is wider than the carbine, so that eliminates that, and it's definately not a plasma rifle, it's a needler.
