The newest model, the '''M90A''', is used in ''Halo 3''. There are a variety of graphical and gameplay changes from the previous models, and it is arguably the most powerful variant of the trio. The blue iron-sights have been reintroduced, it has a longer barrel and a [[flashlight]] is mounted on the side. Unlike the older models which had a 12 shell magazine, it only has a 6 shell magazine. The player can carry 30 spare shells or 5 loads (a total of 36 shells or 6 loads), as opposed to the first version's 72, or ''Halo 2'''s 48. To make up for this, its effective range is far greater than the M90 Mk II, as it can kill targets at two or even three times the range, depending on their health. It even has enough firepower to send a [[Warthog]] out of control if the vehicle is shot in the right place, although the Warthog is much less durable in ''Halo 3''. This variant of the Shotgun also appears bulkier and stronger than its ''Halo Combat Evolved'' and ''Halo 2'' relatives. The action is always cycled after reloading.
