The lightrifle fires luminescent orange hardlight rounds. It is a scoped, mid-range to long-range weapon that normally fires a three-shot burst with one pull of the trigger. When zoomed in, however, it fires a single high-powered concentrated shot that consumes three units of ammunition. It holds 36 units per magazine; however this provides 12 shots while zoomed in. Functionally, the weapon employs componential particle acceleration to fire beams of hard light particles at a high speed and with pinpoint accuracy.{{Ref/Reuse|intel}} Using the diffused combination of particle acceleration and hardened photonic matter, it is capable of dropping individual shielded enemies such as [[Sangheili|Elites]], [[SPARTAN-IV program|Spartans]], [[Promethean Knight]]s, and [[Promethean Soldier]]s in a few well placed shots.{{Ref/Reuse|H4EVG}}

The rifle possesses an angular design and metallic casing. It features a stock, a firing grip, a stabilizing firing grip, a scope and a light mass channel.{{Ref/Reuse|H4EVG}} It appears to be held together, at least partly, by energy fields as indicated by its self-assembly process and floating sights. Orange lights are present while the weapon is self-assembling and throughout the casing once assembly is complete; there is also a column of orange-colored energy that runs through the light mass channel.{{Ref/Reuse|H4EVG}} Hard light highlights stream along the sides of the weapon while it is fired. The sight through the scope is tinted orange and is approximately a 4× zoom. It features integrated targeting optics.{{Ref/Reuse|H4EVG}}
