It wasn't called the magnum in First Strike, and it was actually supposed to be stronger than the one in the game

Another thing, the magnum would be more powerful than the old pistol. The bullets were the size of a spartan thumb, it took an elite down in like 3 rounds. The spartans were amazed at it's power.

*coughcoughidiotcough* That's not at your A_Spartan, that's to Severus, Magnums are more powerful because they have a bigger slug, they just have a slower ROF and have less accuracy at long ranges.

The SMG and the Magun are separet wepons, Ill say it again the magnum loks imilar to the old pistol but is black, is dual weildable, and has no scope. It does less damage but is still ass accurate as the pistol unzoomed is now

so your saying its still there just no zoom anfd not as much power. what proof do u have?

yeah, notice how the HBO reviewer keeps saying "in our build".

It wasn't a final build, that's why they were playing Zanzibar only (coughE3cough).

Capt the holster is atleast 3 inches wide and about 5 1/2 inches long. The original pistol is much longer and not that wide

As I said earlier, it was drawn by Eddie Smith, who OXM (I think) hired to draw a picture for Halo 2, and Eddie Smith is linked to Bungie.

lets get things straight the BattleRifle is NOT the new pistol replacement.

the pistol in Halo 2 will be evenly balanced so people cant complain about it

Right. All we know is the pistol was just absent from the E3 build of Zanzibar.

The halo2 beta is only the multiplayer... you think the weapons in the beta are all the weapons? NOT LIKLY... frankie has told us about loads of new weapons.... but they just wont tell us about them yet.


oh and by the way, that little pistol holster is just a drawing! Its made by a guy who has nothing to do with Halo2's plot or anything. He just thought that it would look cool.

Ok here is the truth the pistol is back. Its black has no scope, has a 10 shot clip, and does equal to or a little less damage then the original pistol but dual wielding it makes it very similar to the old pistol damage wise.
