The '''Assault Rifle''' is an automatic weapon that has appeared in many ''[[Halo (disambiguation)|Halo]]'' video games.


This [[UNSC]] rifle is gas-operated and magazine-fed. It fires 7.62mm armor-piercing rounds. Rate of fire is limited by a soldier's ability to aim, fire and change magazines. Short, controlled bursts are more accurate than fully automatic fire. The MA5B's integrated computer displays rounds left in the magazine and the relative direction of the gas giant, [[Threshold]], for point of reference. This feature is particularly useful for orienting you in areas where it's easy to get turned around and lose your sense of direction.
==Universe and lore==
{{Main|MA5 series}}
{{Expand-section}}


This weapon can utilize varying types of ammunition, including "shredder" rounds (for lightly-armored infantry), and armor-piercing HE rounds (for moderately, and heavily armored infantry). This weapons also includes a built-in flashlight for low-light situations. Slightly modified versions of the MA5B's barrel can be made to support a silencer for covert missions where both power, and discretion is required.
==Overview==
{{Expand-section}}


The MA5B Rifle is the latest model of the MA series. The MA3, and MA2Bs were the standard rifles in 2525, but the newest model, the MA5B, is the current standard [[Marine]] rifle, and is one of the most versitile weapons in the Marine's arsenal.
