The H1 pistol was a joke, but keep in mind that I prefer the more realistic approach Halo2's weapons had. The Battle Rifle performs just like the pistol, but it's meaner and it looks cool as hell. I guess they could bring the H1 pistol back--but it'd be largely useless in Halo 2's multiplayer.
For one, the fire rate is horribly slow, so it would be pretty useless in Dual Wielding situations(not mention No Scope while DW). Secondly, due to the balance of the weapons in Halo 2, there's no way the pistol would be equipped with a scope that matches the Battle Rifle's range. It wouldn't fit in.
It's possible they could rekindle the M6D for Halo 3, but it'd have to have a much more limited range on it's scope, like .5x or 1x magnification. That could work, as long as they keep the pistol what it is.....a close quarters, limited range weapon.
