The Battle Rifle is a human loadout weapon featured in Halo 3: ODST. It was not a player-useable weapon in the original Xbox 360 release of the game, having been functionally replaced by the Automag pistol, but was made playable for the game's Halo: The Master Chief Collection port for use in Firefight. It is mostly-identical to its Halo 3 counterpart, with the two games sharing assets and engine.
