"Machine pistols are sloppy, but when I need to fight Flood Infection forms, sloppy's the best thing on the menu."
— Private Lewis Allen

This machine pistol is a personal defense weapon in use after the Human-Covenant War. Sometime after the Battle of Draetheus V, this machine pistol was used by the SPARTAN-IVs aboard the UNSC Infinity for simulations against the Flood.[1]
