Well I know Bungie will keep dual wielding, not sure if thats a good thing, so I would prefer an improved version of the Halo 2 M6C, maybe it should be an 8 shot kill and not 13. The BR fills the Halo CE M6D role so we really don't need a powerful midrange pistol. The Carbine has also essentially taken the pistols place, as a single-shot midrange weapon although the BR shares the M6D's effectiveness.
So in short, to make dual wielding not butcher the game I think we need the Halo 2 pistol with a damage increase. We already have two Halo CE pistol type weapons, we don't need a third.During Reach, Spartans wore either Mark IV or Mark V armor. The problem with those two variants is that the suit couldn't recognize two weapons at once, so that's why in Halo 1 you didn't dual-wield. In Halo 2 and 3 you had Mark VI armor, which supported two weapons. Reach won't have dual-wielding.
To answer the OP's question, I loved the Halo 2 Magnum and really want it back in the mix.
