*A silenced SMG, with a scope, is the default weapon for [[Halo 3: ODST]]'s new protagonist, an ODST [[The Rookie|Lance Corporal]]. It also features a laser sight but it's not used in any game footage. | *A silenced SMG, with a scope, is the default weapon for [[Halo 3: ODST]]'s new protagonist, an ODST [[The Rookie|Lance Corporal]].

*The SMG is, in many ways, the same as an [[MA5B]] Assault Rifle, as it has relatively similar range, power and capabilities. As with the MA5B, pulsing is a usable technique to increase accuracy and power. This may explain why it is a very common weapon in Halo 2, as the Assault Rifle was in Halo: Combat Evolved. It might also be more popular with Marines than the MA5B, as it is more compact, allowing for closer action, and dual-wieldable (though not for Marines), doubling its already considerable power. | *The SMG is, in many ways, the same as an [[MA5B]] Assault Rifle, as it has relatively similar range, power and capabilities.

*In [[Halo 2]] when wielding one SMG, the stock is extended, and while dual-wielding the stocks are collapsed. In [[Halo 3]], the stock is always in one position, but is still adjustable canonically. | *In [[Halo 2]] when wielding one SMG, the stock is extended, and while dual-wielding the stocks are collapsed.

*Although the M7 Submachine Gun is primarily issued to vehicle crews, it is also a favorite of commando teams in its sound suppressed version, the M7S. The issuing of the M7 to vehicle crews is similar to how real world vehicle crews are issued carbines and SMGs because of the fact that these weapons would take up less space in a vehicle. | *Although the M7 Submachine Gun is primarily issued to vehicle crews, it is also a favorite of commando teams in its sound suppressed version, the M7S.
