OK, stay with me here:
Since you will be fighting on earth where not everyone has the latest technology, you may come across infantry or civilians, for that matter, who will be using old technology (ie, the MA5B). This also makes sense if you understand that people have been fighting long before you arrived on earth (you're a little late, remember?). Taking it a step further, you might even see some pre-Halo era weapons (the MA5A?). Anyway, that's just my two cents.
