I was just reading First Strike, and stumbled upon this: page 133
Fred peered inside the locker and saw a rack of handguns. They werent the standard issue HE pistols; these had oversized barrels- easily 30 percent larger and longer- they had grips of self molding plastasteel.
whatever this new handgun shot, it was high-caliber, shots the size of his thumb.
Right after this paragraph (on the same page) the spartans get their first sight of a new Battle Rifle.
Unlike the MA5B, this rifle had a longer barrel and stock, with a cut-down muzzle shroud. A scope was mounted one an optics railing along the top of the rifle.
Fred liked the feel of this new rifle, but wondered how much punch it had- enough, he hoped,to make the trade-off of having fewer rounds in the clip worth it.
Perhaps you will be able to use this new pistol in halo 2. What are your thoughts?
EDIT: the spartans refer to it as the magnum pistol.

Could be interesting, I think the battlerifle is both a pistol and a rifle anyways
