...they are bringing back the MA5B Assault Rifle in Halo 3?

Ach! Was ist los?

Something that looks like the MA5B has appeared in Halo 3. Whether it is the same old gun, and whether it will appear in the final game at all, is currently unknown.

From the looks of the announcement trailer, some sort of Assault Rifle variant is going to be in the game.

It's not true,Bungie said that the rifle the MC was holding in the trailer was an assault rifle,but not the MA5B.It is some type of rifle similar to it though.

I'm assuming if it's a varient of the Assult Rifle it will be full auto.

see thread 'halo 3 weapon ideas'

it may be the ma2b (i have read the books) but keep in mind the ma2b is a much weaker, innaccurate version of the ma5b, that was commonly used for training operations. troops on earth may get the next generation weaponry, but troops out in supply stations far away (master chief) may still be in the old days. plus, cmon, the ma5b rocked
