The M6C/SOCOM variant is a special issued handgun to the UNSC's [[UNSC Special Forces|special operations units]]. The M6C/SOCOM variant has an integrated sound [[Suppressor (attachment)|suppressor]], and [[Muzzle Brake|muzzle brake]]. It is the secondary weapon of special forces like [[Orbital Drop Shock Trooper]]s and is used in operations that rely on stealth rather than direct engagements. In lieu of the [[KFA-2 x2|KFA-2]] sight used on the [[M6D magnum|M6D PDWS]], the M6C/SOCOM utilizes the [[VnSLS/V 6E]] smart linked 4× scope, enabling the user to eliminate targets at long range while incurring limited recoil due to the integral sound suppressor and compensator. It has a considerably high rate of fire with an long effective range, being able to hit a target accurately at about fifty meters. The M6C/SOCOM is, like its M6C counterpart, weaker than the standard-issue [[ | The M6C/SOCOM variant is a special issued handgun to the UNSC's [[UNSC Special Forces|special operations units]].

Like other M6 pistols, the M6S is operated based on the short-recoil principle. When the weapon is fired, the expansion of gases inside the chamber and barrel creates a force sufficient enough to re-cock the weapon and chamber a new cartridge from its magazine. | Like other M6 pistols, the M6S is operated based on the short-recoil principle.
