I'm having a hard time telling, it appears to be a shotgun but it could be a BR as well, anyone got any ideas

I wish I was still legendary.

AR.

C&H

looks like a br.

im assuming from left to right

chain gun, pistols, Br, ???, sniper rifle.

The original BADFINGER! (the second)

Assault Rifle.

Its the Iconic Halo Weapon, so yeah thats my point.

And to those who are about to say its not an AR but is in fact a BR because of its longer barrel, i say to you READ THE BOOKS! and you would know that all the weapons in the UNSC arsenal were customizable.

So i reckon it hints at weapon customization............. possibly.

Or - it's just a knife. Like the knife on the CQB armor.

Look... I'm on bungiepedia!

To me, looks like, from left to right:

Unknown Spartan: unknown cannon-type weapon (or a new turret)
Spartan-320: a holstered pistol
Spartan-259: an Assault Rifle (you can see it from the bottom, so it looks strange)
Unknown Spartan: a combat knife
Unknown Spartan: a Sniper Rifle

We can't be sure about any of that...Seriously, you can't go saying that that person is that Spartan etc. because nobody other than a Bungie employee would know (and i doubt even most of them know)

ROBOHOG IS VERY BRILLIANT AND STUFF.

An Assault Rifle. It only looks a bit different because it's slightly tilted, but even at that angle you could see the enormous hole that is the the Battle Rifle's optical rail/carry handle/whatever it is, as well as it's scope. Therefore it is not a Battle Rifle. it could be a new weapon altogether, but because the Assault Rifle is so widely used in the background of the Halo series I doubt it.

Didn't Sam Die before the events(long before) the events of Reach took place?

Who says the game is totally based on the actual battle? Judging by the length of the battle (in the actual book) the game would probably be fairly short. Halo: Reach could go on about previous things that happened on it like the Spartan II training or the first time Cortana and John met. It could also feature what happened after because I'm sure in Halo First Strike John returns to Reach with the Ascendant Justice to find the surviving Spartans like Grace.

What if the game starts out with John meeting Cortana and getting his Mark V armor. and the training mission would be the one he had to do in the F.O.R to test out Mark V?

It is an Assualt Rifle.
Mostly because that is the Icon of Halo Weapons.
I do believe, however, that that Assualt Rifle seems to have a Grip section on the Barrel, which seems cool.

From Left to Right.
Big Ass ChainGun, Pistol, Cool AR, Knife???, Sniper Rifle with Tripod Attachment?

Does anyone know exactly what the character on the right side of the AR Guy is holding.

I would think it is a Baton or a Knife.
What do you think?
