::Given that ''Anniversary'' will be released in a little over a month, it is definitely the final model. ''The Essential Visual Guide'' states that the M45 is the UNSCDF's standard, most widely-used shotgun - not just for the Army, but for the entire military. Therefore, it's probably just a minor retcon along the lines of, ''"They actually used this weapon, not that one."'' The idea that the M90 has been replaced in-game by the functionally identical M45 doesn't harm canon in any way, though it does reveal that some M45s have twelve-round magazines. Besides, the M45 looks much cooler. --[[User talk:Braidenvl|Courage never dies.]] 11:25, 8 October 2011 (EDT)
