The '''M6A magnum''' is a standard-issue [[United Nations Space Command]] sidearm.{{Ref/Reuse|bnetM6G}}
The '''M6A Handgun'''<ref>[http://www.bungie.net/projects/halo3/content.aspx?link=h3pistol Bungie Archive]</ref> is a [[United Nations Space Command]] firearm.  


==Background==
It is a variant of Misriah Armory's [[M6 Series]] of sidearms pistols, and is noted for its comfortableness and light weight. However, it sees only widespread distribution in civilian security forces such as Law enforcement and not mainstream [[UNSC]] military units.
The M6A magnum is a variant of [[Misriah Armory]]'s [[M6 series]] of pistols, and is noted for its comfort. By [[2552]], it has been largely phased out of military use and only sees widespread distribution in [[law enforcement|civilian security forces]].{{Ref/Reuse|bnetM6G}}


The M6A fires [[M225 Semi-Armor-Piercing High-Explosive|12.7×40mm]] projectiles, and has a black polymer finish. Unlike other models such as the [[M6D]] or the [[M6G]], it is not up-sized to fit [[MJOLNIR armor]].<ref>[http://halo.bungie.net/projects/odst/guide.aspx '''Bungie.net''': ''Halo 3: ODST Field Guide'']</ref><ref>'''[[Halo Encyclopedia (2009 edition)]]''', ''page 321'' (2011)</ref>
The M6A Handgun is believed to fire 12.7mm x 40 projectiles, possibly semi-armor piercing (SAP). But the M6A might actually fire a smaller round as they are more comfortable to shoot.


==Sources==
The M6A was made around 140 years before [[2552]], being made in [[2412]].
