Q
What new weapons will be available in Halo 2?
A
So far there have been a few new weapons revealed. The Battle Rifle is an evolved version of the original assault rifle and features increased accuracy, a scope, and a slower rate of fire. The SMG (Sub Machine Gun) is a rapid-fire gun that trades a high volume of bullets for decreased accuracy. [color=red]We have also discussed the Covenant Carbine - an energy based sniper weapon.[/color]

How you like them apples!!!!?????
It's a sniper weapon because it has a scope, much like the Pistol was a sniper weapon in Halo cause it had a scope, it's not, however, THE Covie sniper, that's another weapon.
