The '''M7/Caseless Submachine Gun''' | The '''M7/Caseless Submachine Gun'''{{Ref/Reuse|H3}} ('''M7/SMG''') is a personal defense weapon developed and manufactured by [[Misriah Armory]]. It is commonly used by infantry, special forces, and vehicle crews of the [[United Nations Space Command|UNSC]] [[UNSC Armed Forces|Armed Forces]]. A suppressed version of the weapon, the [[M7S SMG]], is often issued to special operations personnel.{{Ref/Reuse|enc320}}<ref name="ODST">[http://halo.bungie.net/projects/odst/guide.aspx '''Bungie.net''': ''Halo 3: ODST Guide'']</ref> | ||
Originally, the M7 SMG was issued solely to vehicle crews as an emergency weapon; however, the submachine gun became widely used during the [[Insurrection]]. The weapon became favored by paramilitary police units and [[UNSC Special Forces]] units for its efficiency in eliminating [[Insurrectionist|insurgents]] located in orbital habitats and cluttered urban environments. Due to this efficacy, the M7 was also popular with those same Insurrectionists. Although the UNSC began trialing a [[M20 SMG|replacement]] for the weapon, the M7 SMG remains the current submachine gun model used by the UNSC following the [[Human-Covenant War]]. | Originally, the M7 SMG was issued solely to vehicle crews as an emergency weapon; however, the submachine gun became widely used during the [[Insurrection]].

The SMG has a polymer pistol grip, folding fore-grip, [[iron sights]], and collapsible buttstock, as well as a titanium body. The SMG must be cocked before it can fire the first round. The charging handle is located on the right side of the gun and does not move during operation. Once the first round is fired, the gases from previous rounds force the breech to rotate and chamber a new round. Once the magazine is empty, the handle although not illustrated in-game, can either be pulled back and locked or it can be fully cycled after a fresh magazine has been housed. If it is first pulled back and locked, then it must be pushed forward in order to chamber a new round. The magazine release button is located between the red dots on the receiver and needs to be pressed before it can be flicked off. There is no ejection port due to the nature of the rounds fired. | The SMG has a polymer pistol grip, folding fore-grip, [[iron sights]], and collapsible buttstock, as well as a titanium body.
