Talk:BR55 battle rifle

Halo: First Strike
Now correct me if I am wrong but in first strike it says that the Battle Rifle was a cut down version of the Assault Rifle that the Spartan twos found along with extra armour in ONI's Castle Base?

actually, the book made it clear that they were entirely new weapons. however, they did include features from the MA5B, and were even referred to as "assault rifles" at times, although the term is generally applied to a wide array of weapons in general. dont worry: it's an easy mistake to make.

Pre-Halo 2 Information
I've has this lingering thought in the back of my mind and now I've finally got a place to ask about it! Is it just me, or did the pre-Halo 2 reports state the battle rifle would be able to shoot a single bullet or a three-shot burst? Or am I crazy? lol. Please eleviate my concerns about my mental health on my talk page, Thanks :) --  Manticore  TalkundefinedCSV 14:52, 22 January 2007 (UTC)
