The M20 is visually similar to its predecessor, though it differs in using a new high-velocity armor-piercing round that increases the amount of kinetic energy imparted to the target, specifically developed to counter the proliferation of military-grade armor among Insurrectionist cells and as a response to Covenant energy shield technology.<ref>[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/universe/weapons/submachine-gun '''Halo Waypoint''': ''SMG'']</ref> The weapon uses top-mounted magazines of cased ammunition rather than the side-mounted magazines of caseless ammunition used by the M7. Otherwise, the weapon is very similar, featuring an adjustable grip under the weapon and a telescoping stock which can be retracted, allowing the weapon to be fired one-handed, and although the most commonly issued model features a telescopic sight attachment, the weapon also accomodated an array of sound suppressors, laser targeters and recoil stabilisers. The weapon is also compatible with kinetic bolts that impart more kinetic energy to the target, and can be equipped with an energy bayonett.<ref>'''[[Halo Online]]'''</ref>

The M20 ~~SMG~~ is visually ~~very~~ similar to its ~~M7 counterpart~~, though it~~'s significantly more powerful. Like before~~, the weapon ~~fires pistol~~-~~caliber cartridges from a 60~~-~~round magazine at a rate~~ of ~~900 rounds per minute~~. ~~The M20~~ is ~~most notably different in its functional design~~, ~~opting away from~~ the ~~former's caseless cartridges~~ and ~~side~~-~~mounted magazine in favor~~ of ~~traditional cased cartridges~~ and ~~a top-mounted magazine~~. It is ~~normally fielded~~ with ~~a CQB sight~~.

-The M20 SMG is visually very similar to its M7 counterpart, though it's significantly more powerful. Like before, the weapon fires pistol-caliber cartridges from a 60-round magazine at a rate of 900 rounds per minute. The M20 is most notably different in its functional design, opting away from the former's caseless cartridges and side-mounted magazine in favor of traditional cased cartridges and a top-mounted magazine. It is normally fielded with a CQB sight.
