From Halopedia, the Halo wiki

(Occam's razor indicates that the MA series has always been produced by Misriah. The name is a big tip-off.)

Misriah Armory's logo

"Battle tested for your home."
— A slogan from a Misriah Armory advertisement

Misriah Armory is a major weapons, armor, and vehicle manufacturer based on the planet Mars. It supplies a significant portion of the weapons and matériel used by the United Nations Space Command.[1]

Products

Most of the UNSC's small arms and field equipment, as well as many terrestrial and aerospace vehicles, are produced by Misriah Armory. In addition to their own designs, Misriah manufactures technology created by other firms, most notably AMG Transport Dynamics' M12 Warthog. The company also sells combat-grade weapons (presumably demilitarized) on the civilian market.[2]

Notes

  1. ^ A company advertisement seen in Halo 3: ODST indicates that Misriah Armory produces the M90A shotgun and even markets it as a civilian home-defense weapon. However, Halo: The Essential Visual Guide and Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary's Library clearly state that Weapon System Technologies designed the DTM Series (including the M90) as a more economical copy of Misriah's M45 series. From this, one may infer that Weapon System Technologies is a subsidiary of Misriah Armory, that Misriah produces the M45 under license, or that Misriah bought the weapon's patent from WST.
