*The M7 in [[Halo 2]] is not a sound tactical weapon to start off with, but if no other option is available, minimize being killed by staying in a safe zone until a better weapon becomes available. | *The M7 in [[Halo 2]] is not a sound tactical weapon to start off with, but if no other option is available, minimize being killed by staying in a safe zone until a better weapon becomes available. | ||
*If stuck with an M7, stay in close quarters, and do not venture out where an enemy player has the option of taking you down with longer range weapons. | *If stuck with an M7, stay in close quarters, and do not venture out where an enemy player has the option of taking you down with longer range weapons. | ||
*While dual-wielding a M7 and a [[M6C]] might sound tactically useful, a player should not consider it unless comfortable with it. The mixing of a full auto and a semi-auto weapon can be confusing and the chances of mistakes are greater. | *While dual-wielding a M7 and a [[M6C]] might sound tactically useful, a player should not consider it unless comfortable with it.

*Dual-Wielding the M7 with either the [[Plasma Rifle]] or the [[Spiker]] is a favorite combo among players. To maximize the lethality, try firing the Plasma Rifle first following up with a short burst from the M7 to ensure no ammo is wasted. | *Dual-Wielding the M7 with either the [[Plasma Rifle]] or the [[Spiker]] is a favorite combo among players.

*The M7 is a good choice for anti-air because of the sheer volume of fire being produced if dual-wielded. If facing a banshee it is recommended to let it go into a strafing run on you, and then at medium range open fire. This can kill a banshee very easily. It is unknown if this tactic works on Hornets. The recoil, however, although making the reticule rise and making it seem easier to hit air targets, is not effective in this strategy as the Banshee will likely be flying towards you, and thus move down your screen(if you don't change the camera angle). The recoil however, can be useful for targets flying overhead. | *The M7 is a good choice for anti-air because of the sheer volume of fire being produced if dual-wielded.

*The M7 when duel wielded with the pistol creates a deadly combo that can take out targets quick and efficiently. However, it requires some skill in order to master it for medium range. | *The M7 when duel wielded with the pistol creates a deadly combo that can take out targets quick and efficiently.
