Talk:M6G magnum

= Eric Nylund's Halo: First Strike novel' Pistol = Did any one ever think that the pistols in the novel could be the M6G considering they are described as being quite powerful and having a larger and longer barrel.

Pistol or Magnum?
Should this article be named M6G Pistol or M6G Magnum? This article mentions BOTH. Confusing.... --Sp art an7 81  TalkundefinedCSV

In Halo 3, it's called the "Magnum" so thats what it shall be called.... --User:MLG Cheehwawa

Renaming
Hey, why don't you guys rename this article "M6G HE Magnum"? --Sp art an7 81  TalkundefinedCSV


 * I'm not sure there's been any confirmation yet that it's an HE pistol. -The Dark Lord Azathoth 19:58, 4 August 2007 (UTC)

Why there's no scope on the M6G
I belive there is no scope on the new M6G because of a common principal of Halo: no scoped weapon can be dual wielded. In halo: Combat Evolved, the M6D was scoped because you could only single wield it. now that the pistol can be dual wielded, bungie had to remove the scope or go against the "Law" of duel wielding--Ryan926 03:19, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

i have no facts 2 confirm this. but if the M6G looks like the M6D including scope. then perhaps the scope is available in single wield and not in dual wield as your sights could only cope with 1 scoped weapon at a time. i hope this is the case. if u think about it the pistol fires slower than the M6D and takes more rounds to kill. that would balance the argument of unfair pistol sniping.

anyway thats just my thoughts. --TriggerHappy

Fix'd
I fixed a phrase that said the M6G has the range/accuracy of the M6D -- Not true, anyone who played customs in the Beta knows that. I also removed the "more balanced" phrase from the "trivia" portion, that was not an 'in-joke' a weapon becomes is heavier in front than in back when unloaded, Fred loaded it and it became balanced because the weight in back evend it out when he loaded the weapon. --User:MLG Cheehwawa

Guys...the stats box...
I fixed some of those stats, the M6G's accuracy may be "high" but it is most certainly not "Very high" as a Sniper's (Hell, the M6D is only "High" not "Very High"). It also is not a long range weapon, it's a close range dual wieldable but can be wielded (not very well) at middle range, but would be outgunned by any midrange gun since they all fire/kill faster in those ranges. --User:MLG Cheehwawa
