The M6D is a semi-automatic, recoil-operated, magazine-fed, magnum caliber handgun; however, if you hold down the trigger  it will fire continuously until the magazine is empty (although if you do use the non-stop fire it will become noticeably less accurate). It is most likely striker-fired, due to the fact that there is no external hammer. [[Image:MC M6D.jpg|thumb|250 px|right|The Master Chief wielding an M6D.]] It fires the M225 SAP-HE (Semi-Armor Piercing, High Explosive) rounds from a 12 round magazine. It has a decent high rate of fire (3.5 rounds/sec or 210 rounds/min) with a very long effective range, being able to hit a target accurately up to about 90-95 meters. Its real range, however, is 122.5 meters (real range being how far the bullet can actually travel). The weapon’s accuracy alone is quite precise and has a very small shot spread at close and medium ranges. This, combined with its decent damage against current shield systems, makes it an acceptable weapon of choice when faced with shielded opponents. It is, however, even more effective against flesh and hard/soft armor, being able to kill most targets in 1 shot to the head or a couple of shots to the body (depending on the target).

Still none the less, if you know this much about halo, it's time to turn off your x-box, go out side, and talk to a fucking girl
