Talk:MA5B assault rifle

Whats with the ICWS after the MA5B.--Ryanngreenday 23:38, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

ICWS stands for "Individual Combat Weapon System". Which really means it's modular with a number of different parts and accessories. CommanderTony 19:37, 22 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Is there anywhere that isn't a fan site were the "Individual Combat Weapon System" is mentioned? -- Esemono 04:40, 23 December 2006 (UTC)

Yes, in "The Art of Halo", page 98. Is there an MA5A? "Is there anyone here?" ... "No!" 

Just like the FN_2000?

No..it looks nothing like it, im taking this Trivia out: "There is dispute over whether Bungie copied the design from Fabrique Nationale's FN2000 assault rifle, or vice versa. Look for it, they're nearly exactly alike. "--JohnSpartan117 07:37, 30 September 2006 (UTC)

That looks like a P-90 and the MA5B Assault rifle all in one and i still don't know were the ICWS comes from.--Ryanngreenday 07:43, 30 September 2006 (UTC)

Its probably a fictional weapons company in the Halo Universe, either that or it stands for (Something) (something) Weapons System.--JohnSpartan117 19:23, 30 September 2006 (UTC)

apparently it stands for Individual-Combat-Weapons-System

That gun at the link looks more like the Battle Rifle not the Assualt Rifle.

The only similiarity, is that they are both Bullpups.--User:JohnSpartan117 16:16, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

MA5C
1up confirmed the Halo 3 Assault Rifle to be the MA5C.

Three-Shot Burst Rifle
In First Strike, the Spartans on Reach find a number of experimental assault rifles. They fire "thumb-size" rounds, and a three-shot burst can cut through an elite's shields and kill the elite. That ain't no Battle Rifle, and sure as hell ain't no MA5B. What is it? 75.31.138.94 03:58, 15 January 2007 (UTC) How do you know its not a Battle Rifle? Sounds like a BR to me.--User:JohnSpartan117 16:17, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
