{{Main|M6 Spartan Laser}}
The M6/R Spartan Laser is one of a myriad of variants of the [[M6 Spartan Laser|M6 Grindell/Galilean Nonlinear Rifle]], an initially exorbitantly expensive weapon which underwent several refinements and iterations to reduce its cost.{{Ref/Site|D=01|M=6|Y=2020|URL=https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/universe/weapons/spartan-laser|Site=Halo Waypoint|Page=Universe - Spartan Laser}} As with all variants of the Spartan Laser, the M6/R has an integrated and [[Smart-linking|smart-linked]] [[Wyrd optics suite|Wyrd III optics suite]], capable of 3× magnification.{{Ref/Reuse|enc22}} The M6/R is powered by the non-removable [[BA-53635/PLMD]] battery unit, which recharges via the [[PP-16979/AM-Sh]].{{Ref/Reuse|prereleasebnet}} Unlike other variants of the Spartan Lasers, however, an M6/R with a full battery unit can discharge five instead of four shots. Utilized for reconnaissance deployments and scouting maneuvers, the M6/R was built to preemptively target and eliminate critical enemy assets before their forces reached full strength.{{Ref/Reuse|enc22}}
