OK, so Frankie recons the gun Master Chief is holding is NOT the assault Rifle. Or at least, it doesn't look exactly the same. So what should the mobel be called? And what should it do?

I reckon normal autofire, like the AR, but with single shots when you zoom in.

a noob rifle. Primary fire would be a burst fire (similar to battle rifle) with a secondary fire plasma bolt which would disable the enemys sheild while the burst fire will take um out

Well it's not the old AR, but it is an AR. prolly new modifications because it looks very similar and as Bungie has stated when they gave the press a fly through of the real time trailer that the ammo count could be seen in Master Chiefs visor, which as you remember, you can see the ammo count in the old AR.

Well all those IMO are pretty dumb choices. I say go back to Marathon and call it the MA-75B. Pretty much all the weapons names and weapons that are in Halo:CE are from Marathon. Except the shotgun is called the WSTE-M a.k.a. waste-em'.

Halo 2 lives on.

IT WILL BE CALLED THE COMBAT RIFLE......Bungie does everything in order. In Halo: CE it was the AR(notice the A). Then in H2 it was the BR (notice the B). Then in H3 it will be the CR(combat rifle).....(notice the C)........so, in other words, it will be A,B,C

hmm, interesting... but I'm not sure if they would actually do that.
