The '''M395B Designated Marksman Rifle''' ('''M395B DMR''') is a [[Wikipedia:Gas-operated reloading|gas-operated]] [[Wikipedia:designated marksman rifle|marksman rifle]] designed by [[Misriah Armory]] and used by the [[United Nations Space Command]]. It replaced the older [[M395 DMR]].{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22P171}}

==Overview==
[[File:Nightfall - Jameson Locke muscles.jpg|thumb|250px|left|Agent [[Jameson Locke]] holding an M395.]]
The M395B is a variant of the M395 that lacks the external ammo counter, making its top flat and allowing easier mounting of scopes. It also has an increased magazine capacity of 15 and on its right side, the ejection port is now modelled. Very minor cosmetic differences can be seen, such as a shorter cheek rest and folded front sight. It is most often fielded with a [[Longshot sight]].<ref name="LAL">[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/canon-fodder-locke-load '''Halo Waypoint''' - ''Canon Fodder - Locke and Load'']</ref>{{Ref/Game|Id=H5G|H5G}}

===Design specifications===

==Attachments==
===Scopes===
*'''Morph M395B''': DMR with [[Morph sight]]. The Morph sight has demonstrated enhanced acquisition speed against targets exhibiting Flood signatures.
*'''Recon M395B''': DMR with [[Recon sight]]. Marine Force Recon configuration that emphasizes ease of handling and mid-range accuracy.
*'''Sentinel M395B''': DMR with [[Sentinel sight]]. Precision configuration with variable-zoom 4×/6× optics, used by unaugmented UNSC snipers.
*'''Hybrid M395B''': DMR with [[Hybrid sight]]. This variant is an improvised configuration used by Swords of Sanghelios warriors on joint patrols.
*'''COG M395B''': DMR with [[COG sight]]. Increasingly popular configuration offered for sale in civilian markets on the frontier.
*'''[[TACSI 3x optics module]]'''

===Configurations===
*'''[[Long barrel]]''': Increases range of bullet magnetism and aim assist.
*'''[[Laser targeter]]''': Increases weapon accuracy by reducing bullet spread.
*'''[[Silencer]]''': Firing the weapon does not make the user show up on enemy radar. However, walking still gives away the user's position.
*'''[[Stabilization jets]]''': Helps control vertical recoil.
*'''[[Kinetic bolts]]''': Augments knockback and damage against vehicles.
*'''[[Energy bayonet]]''': Increases melee damage and range, allowing for a one-hit kill against normal opponents.
*'''[[Knight blade]]''': Increases melee effectiveness, with extra damage and knockback against vehicles.
*'''[[Extended Mag|Extended magazine]]''': Increases both ready and reserve ammunition capacity by 66.7%.
*'''[[Threat marker]]''': Tracks targeted enemy personnel for a short time.
*'''[[Sound dampener]]''': Increases effective range and reduces firing signature.

==Gameplay==
{{Linkbox|gameplay=yes}}
===Changes from M395 DMR in ''Halo 4'' to M395B DMR in ''Halo 5: Guardians''===
*New scope lacks an external ammo indicator; instead, it is featured on the lower right corner of the screen when using the scope.
*Bloom is toned down to the point of near non-existence.
*Accuracy for continuous fire has been increased once again.
*Again has a 15 round magazine, with total reserve rounds of 45.
*Rate of fire has been increased once again to 185 RPM.{{Ref/Reuse|H5GA}}

===Changes from ''Halo 5: Guardians'' to [[Halo Championship Series|HCS]] testing===
*Aim assist properties have been changed, with shorter range engagements losing it.
*Fire rate has been slowed down, putting the DMR back to a state closer to ''Halo 4''{{'}}s M395 at 175 RPM (-5.4%).

===Changes from HCS testing to [[Overtime]]===
*Aim assist has been tweaked once more to be less finicky in close range.

==Production notes==
*As with the M392 DMR in ''Halo: Reach'' and M395 DMR in ''Halo 4'', the M395B in ''Halo 5: Guardians''  erroneously ejects spent [[M634 Experimental High-Powered Semi-Armor-Piercing|M634 X-HP-SAP]] shell casings rather than the M118 7.62×51mm round it actually uses. On a related note, the [[BR85 battle rifle|BR85N]] now ironically ejects the M118 shell casings that should belong to the DMR.
