*In ''Halo 2'', when the player wields a single M7, the SMG's stock is extended. When the M7 is dual-wielded, the stock is collapsed. In ''Halo 3'', the stock remains locked halfway in both the first-person and third-person animations, regardless of whether the weapon is being dual-wielded.

*The M7 SMG is depicted as ejecting shell casings in "Monsters" cutscene from ''Halo Wars'' and in the ''Halo Legends'' short ''The Babysitter''. The cutscene shows ejected casings in [http://youtu.be/1vhIIeSo-_U?t=49s only one instance], while in other shots the weapon's operation is correctly depicted; however, the short features a [http://youtu.be/2kPvBqSlIEc?t=14m13s lingering shot] on [[Taylor Miles|Dutch]]'s spent brass. This is an artistic error as the M7 does not have an ejection port to remove spent casings, compounded by the weapon's very name describing it as caseless. When this discrepancy was brought up on the ''halo.bungie.org'' forums, [[Frank O'Connor]] replied that there is a cased variant of the weapon.<ref>[http://forums.bungie.org/halo/archive32.pl?read=949702 '''halo.bungie.org''', ''Re: After my 4th viewing of The Babysitter...'']</ref> Despite this, the small frame of the weapon and its magazine makes it unlikely that such a version exists.

*The circular ramp the M7 uses to feed rounds into the chamber is similar to the mechanism utilized in the real-world [[Wikipedia:FN P90|FN P90 submachine gun]]. However, the P90 uses a top-loaded magazine that feeds cased 5.7x28mm rounds horizontally.
