The M6A is a variant of Misriah Armory's [[M6 Series]] of sidearms pistols, and is noted for its comfort. However, it sees only widespread distribution in civilian security forces such as Law enforcement and Governmental security; not mainstream [[UNSC]] military units. This model began production around 140 years before [[2552]].

The M6A Handgun fires 12.7mm x 40 projectiles, and has a black polymer finish. Unlike other models such as the [[M6D]] or the [[M6G]], it is not upsized to fit MJOLNIR armor.<ref>[http://www.bungie.net/projects/odst/guide.aspx ODST Field Guide]</ref>
