M6G magnum: Difference between revisions

From Halopedia, the Halo wiki

(→‎2552 model: Added the odd info from the article blurb of the M6G page from Bungie.net. It weirdly allows the M6C decal to work as its part of a modification package.)

*In ''Halo 3'', the stamping on the side of the M6G incorrectly labels it as a [[M6C magnum|Model 6C]]. In ''Halo: Reach'', it is labeled as a [[M6B Personal Defense Weapon System|Model 6B]], though this was corrected in the M6 series article on ''Halo Waypoint''.<ref name="old waypoint">[http://halo.xbox.com/en-us/intel/theuniverse/tech/gallery/magnum/f4c403d6-269e-499a-ac14-9a696e0a5b27 '''Halo Waypoint''': ''Magnum''] (defunct, backup on [https://web.archive.org/web/20110920223953/http://halo.xbox.com/en-us/intel/theuniverse/tech/gallery/magnum/f4c403d6-269e-499a-ac14-9a696e0a5b27 Archive.org])</ref>

**The Bungie.Net article blurb however states that the M6G in ''Halo 3'' used a "modification package". This would allow M6C parts to be used on that model if they were part of the package.
**Similarly, [[WETA Workshop]]'s M6G prop features the same manufacturer's markings as the ''Halo 3'' model, albeit stenciled instead of engraved. However, the year 2552 is misprinted as 5225.<ref>[[:File:Halo3-M6GPistol-Slide-Replica.jpg|WETA Workshop's M6G replica]]</ref>

*Like the M6D, the ''Halo 3'' M6G has Asian writing stamped on the top of the barrel, but in this case, it is Korean Hangul, not Japanese Kanji. It is also featured on the bottom of the magazine. The word 일곱 (''il-gohb'') translates to the number [[seven]]. Interestingly, the writing is upside down. Looking at the pictures below, you can see that the "ㄹ" letter in "일" is above the "이" when it should be below.
