:::It could be that its ammunition is considered pistol-caliber by the Sangheili, which would indeed make it fall within the correct definition of a carbine. Still doesn't give a reason as to why they're using carbines as marksman weapons. It could just be that they're a carbine variant of a larger/longer rifle, and the advent of plasma weaponry rendered these longer rifles obsolete, but they still required marksman weapons so they went with the Type-51. You could come up with a million headcanon reasons, but the truth is simply that Bungie didn't have a whole lot of words left to describe it. Personally I would have called it the Fuel Rod Rifle (in contrast to the Fuel Rod Cannon), or maybe give a fake name to the material of the ammunition it uses and call it that + "Rifle".-- | :::It could be that its ammunition is considered pistol-caliber by the Sangheili, which would indeed make it fall within the correct definition of a carbine.

Can somebody clarify on how this page does not meet standards? It's detailed, and from my quick skim over the page, is cited where necessary. http://img810.imageshack.us/img810/9315/signxb.jpg 16:38, 2 June 2013 (EDT) | Can somebody clarify on how this page does not meet standards?
