1: As makaveli4ever said the Halo novels are part of the Halo story bible and everything in there has been placed their by Bungie.
2: According to leaked reports about the beta the Magnum is in there, it is black and has 10 rounds and no scope.
3: There is also reports that the Wraith Tank is pilotable so that line of reasoning doesn't work.
4: The pistol has been used in analogies to descripe dual wielding it with a plasma pistol.
5: What FPS doesn't have a pistol?
In light of these lines of reasoning the Pistol in one form or another almost certainly going to be in Halo 2.
