For those that watched the Spartan Ops gameplay (if you have NOT, it’s on this site somewhere) you will realize that for a couple of seconds, one of the Spartan’s picked up a pistol and totaled a Promethean.
It looks SO -Yoink!-, and its sound was just like a real pistol; the thud from each shot shakes you to the core.
Anybody else like the new pistol? It’s basically the Reach pistol with a dark grey/black colour and looks quite a bit smaller then its predecessor.
P.S.
The Assault Rifle is BEYOND EPIC!!!
We’ve got Spartans on the ground, sir. We’re not going anywhere…
Only non-biased problem I have with the pistol right now is that it has 2 melee animations just like in H2, H3, ODST, Reach.
Why can’t we just have 1 melee animation so I don’t have to melee a hundred times to get the animation I want? 
Nobody beats the look of Halo CE’s pistol. Ignore the 3-shot-kill.
That pistol looked smexy.
This model is called the M6H just so you know.
It sounds kind of like a Deagle to me. Yes, that pistol is indeed smexy.
Yes, I was glad to see the pistol back with all its amazingness.
Actually I think it looks kinda bad from first person. Looking at it from a third person, it looks great, but in first, not so much. The whole rear end of it looks really odd. Also I don’t know what you were listening to, but the Pistol sounds like someone firing a squidgy. Watch the MLG vids. Right now, it sounds horrid.

this.
Not only that too, but the gun looks like it is alot more accurate than Reach’s pistol and can shoot just as fast.
I think the 6 shot kill is ok for a gun like that. Imagine having the speed and damage power-ups combined with this thing. You’ll reload like crazy and hurt like hell! D:

Maybe you could select different animations for different guns in the armoury? Kind of a lame feature but I think it’d be pretty cool.
OT: I hope the pistol is a five shot kill. Does anybody know if it is? Provide a source.
