 *On the side of the Battle Rifle, opposite side to the charging handle there are two Chinese symbols, "猴王", which translates to Monkey King. This is a nod to the [[M6D]], which has the Kanji symbol for [[7]] on the side.
 *The BR55's first canonical appearance was in [[Joseph Staten]]'s novel [[Halo: Contact Harvest]] in the novel it is explained that the first prototype came out in 2525. It has a 60 round magazine,<ref>[[Halo: Contact Harvest]], page 132-133</ref> after the conflict at Harvest the UNSC standardized the BR55 for field deployment.
-*On the Level [[Quarantine Zone (Level)|Quarantine Zone]] in ''Halo 2'', the player can find a Battle Rifle from a dead UNSC Marine that, when reloaded, can have a total of 236 rounds of ammo total instead of the normal 108 spare rounds.
-*The notorious [[Noob Combo]] is used in the ''Halo 2'' cinematic [[Another Day at the Beach]].
-*In the Halo 2 E3 Demo, the Battle Rifle was the only weapon shown used in making a melee combo, originally meant to be in the [[Halo 2|final version]] but was scrapped. It was also shown firing semi-automatically in both the demo and in the E3 2004 Multiplayer Alpha demo in which the semi auto mode was engaged when in zoomed mode.
 *Much like the [[MA5B]] and the [[MA5C]], the BR55 and its newer variant, the [[BR55HB SR Battle Rifle]], has a screen with the number of rounds left in the magazine shown in bright blue text. A compass is absent from the screen, however.
