Covenant Weapons, how do they work?

I don’t see a trigger. I’m not asking for specifications, because I doubt anyone knows the technical data behind the mechanisms. I was wondering if the books elaborated on the issue.

Probably a holographic trigger like most things the Covenant use.

I would think they are pressure sensitive triggers.

Pressure sensors would make scents, so if you sqwisted* the grip it would fire the plasma rifle. Cool!

I don’t know what sqwisted means, but it might be my new favorite word.

Probably the same way magnets do.

I kid.

From what I have gathered with the Carbine and Halo 2 Beam Rifle, it looks like you twist the trigger mechanism instead of squeezing it.
