The M6 [[Spartan]] Laser is a shoulder-mounted direct energy weapon used by the [[UNSC]]. It fires a potential-to-kinetic powerful red chemical laser capable of destroying vehicles and infantry with one accurate strike. When the trigger is pulled, a harmless red sighting laser is projected on-target along with a charging sound, known as a painter. The Spartan Laser will then charge for three seconds before firing its powerful and destructive burst. As the Spartan Laser charges, the charging tone gets noticeably louder up until the laser is fired. The charging sequence can be canceled without a battery penalty if the target moves out of sight or the wielder needs to change position. The laser is also capable of firing through several players or vehicles, and has a small blast radius, injuring targets within 2 meters of the impact point and toppling light vehicles. It has a downtime between shots while it cools down (approx. 2-4 seconds), and is highly effective at destroying enemy vehicles.<ref>[http://halo3.com halo3.com]</ref> | The M6 [[Spartan]] Laser is a shoulder-mounted direct energy weapon used by the [[UNSC]].

In [[Halo 3]] [[Multiplayer]], if you kill another player with the Spartan Laser, you will achieve a unique medal, the [[Laser Kill Medal]], it is awarded due to the difficulty of having to charge and aim the weapon. The weapon is not available in the campaign until the level [[The Covenant (Level)|the Covenant]], which Master Chief begins the level armed with the M6 G/GNR. The Spartan Laser is the only weapon powerful enough other than the [[Fuel Rod Cannon]] and [[Rocket Launcher]](both of these are very hard to hit him with) that can harm [[343 Guilty Spark]] in the final level of the campaign. | In [[Halo 3]] [[Multiplayer]], if you kill another player with the Spartan Laser, you will achieve a unique medal, the [[Laser Kill Medal]], it is awarded due to the difficulty of having to charge and aim the weapon.
