Editing Talk:BR55HB battle rifle

==Variant==
I know I could've just changed it(and I will), but just to clear it up to some people who got it wrong, this is ''not'' a variant, but more of an "upgrade". This is a ''new'', and ''different'' weapon, whereas the all the M90s are just one weapon with different variants. This is a completely new weapon in the BR55 series, like the M6 and the MA5. The M90 Mk I and Mk II as well as the M90A are all classified as one weapon but with different variants, similar to the M16 and its variants, and this is similar to how the M16 is different from the M4 Carbine. This isn't exactly another argument for merging, since we've all decided not to merge it, but just something to put up a few clarifications. --[[User:PX173|'''''PX''''']][[User_talk:PX173|''1'']]''7''[[Special:Contributions/PX173|''3'']] 04:18, October 2, 2009 (UTC)

==Perhaps you guys would be more open about this now?==

You guys recently all agreed to put all the M90s under one article, perhaps you guys would now be more open to putting all the BR55s under one article also?

==Name==

Where the heck is the name of the Halo 3 weapon the BR55HB SR? Are there any sources for this, or is it fanon? [[User:Specops306|Kora &#39;Morhekee]] 01:28, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

It appears on Halo3.com [[User:Clavix2|Clavix2]]

==Grenade Launcher==
Why did someone add that the BR had a grenade launcher? None of the weapons in Halo have grenade launchers, excluding mods.

Reply: Have you played Halo: Custom Edition? No, I thought not, seeing as you don't know about the grenade launcher. Anyway, CMT thought it would be amusing to instant-kill Elites with the Battle Rifle grenade launcher. When you wield it, you cannot throw grenades, but you can carry up to 24 short-radius launch grenades. Very handy.

Reply:It is a mod, so it should not be there. [[User:Grunt Crossing|Grunt Crossing]]

==Designated marksman rifle==
to me it sounds like a DMR man's gun

Well, yes and no- it seems standard issue along with the Ma5c.  However in terms of weapon specs, both the MA5C and the Battle Rifle have large caliburs more appropriate for the DMR man.  But it preforms more like an M16 in-game.

== SR=Short Range??? ==

Just throwing up the possibility of SR meaning not Sniper Rifle, but Short Range.

[[User:Takasmarakas|Takasmarakas]] 23:23, 7 July 2007 (UTC)

Just a thought could it also be Standard Rifle?
--[[User:Dagger133|Dagger133]] 16:07, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

Actually, it could mean "Scoped Rifle", which makes a lot of sense, just like the .50 M82A2 sniper rifle is known in the Marine Corp as the SASR (Special Application Scoped Rifle). "Heavy Barrelled, Scoped Rifle" 18:15, 27 December 2007 (UTC)

== Does this weapon need its own article? ==

The BR in Halo 3 is functionally identical to its Halo 2 counterpart. Both versions have the same range, accuracy, firepower, magazine capacity, and ammunition. The only gameplay difference is the reduced auto-aim in Halo 3, which is an across-the-board change that does not indicate any notable differences between the BR's Halo 2 and Halo 3 iterations. Basically, there is nothing different about the Halo 3 other than the slightly altered designation.

Given the utter lack of differences between the Halo 2 and Halo 3 versions of the Battle Rifle, I fail to see how the Halo 3 version warrants having its own article. Unless someone gives me a good reason why they should remain separate, or an admin deems that are to remain separate and notifies me of their opinion on the matter, then at the end of the week I will tag this article for suggested merging with the BR55 article. [[User:Rtas Vadumee|Rtas Vadumee]] 07:57, 10 July 2007 (UTC)

As per my statements from the other day, I am officially suggesting that this article be merged with the [[BR55 Battle Rifle|other Battle Rifle article]]. [[User:Rtas Vadumee|Rtas Vadumee]] 06:51, 15 July 2007 (UTC)

Also it should be noted that the name for this weapon is wrong. on halo3.com and HaloWiki the battle rifle is also called BR55. Where did the HB SR part come from?
The two articles should be merged into one because the two guns are exactly the same except for appearance. [[User:70.242.119.165|70.242.119.165]] 12:15, 15 July 2007

===C.T. Views===
'''HECK NO!''' Well, on the Bungie.net site during when the Halo3 Beta was up, it was called the BR55HB SR Battle Rifle. Plus it is a new model, just like the M6G, and the SRS99D. It also is changed differently, in the way you can fire it, etc. And it looks so much different, new stocks, new ammo, new barrel, and a new scope. So, I say there is '''NO''' reason to merge it with the regular BR55(A1) Battle Rifle '''([[User:CommanderTony|CommanderTony]] 21:25, 15 July 2007 (UTC))'''

=== JT's View ===

This rifle does not deserve its own article any more then the M19 from Halo 2 deserves a seperate article from the M19 of halo 1. And those rocket launchers actually performed differently. I think that this version should just go under the Halo 3 section as a different variant in the standard Battle Rifle article. It barely looks different and performs the same. 

We do not need a different article for every variant of BR55 there is. Just like Wikipedia does not have a seperate article for every variant of the M16 (A1,A2,A3,A4).[[User:Justin Time|Justin Time]] 23:18, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

**So you're saying we don't need a separate article for all of the MA2/5 Rifles? '''([[User:CommanderTony|CommanderTony]])''' 7/31/2007

No, because those are only loosely related. This is just a small variant of the BR55, not whole whole seperate rifle or configuration of a rifle. And please stop taking the suggested merge tag off these pages, it has been suggested, so it should be discussed. It should be removed when most users come to an agreement about what to do.

====Gunnery-Seargent Maiar's veiw====

Merge. They look very simaler and - from what i have read - perform almost exactly the same. by comparison the MA5B and C assault rifles have different magazine capactitys, damage per hit, accuracy, range, fire rate and appearence. all rather significantly exept appearence.

== [[BR55 Battle Rifle]]/BR55HB SR Battle Rifle ==

Dear all,

There is a reason that these two pages are seperate. During the Halo 3 Beta, if you checked the individual matches, you could find a player's weapon with which that player made the most kills amongst all the weapons that the player used that game. If the player used the BR the most often, the text was "BR55 HB SR Battle Rifle", not "BR55 Battle Rifle". They are two different weapons, with different aesthetic and functional characteristics.

Thanks! =]

Cheers,

==semi automatic?==

note this has some spoilers from the leaked ending video so if you dont wanna know part of the ending dont read. stop now. lol. anyways at the end 7 marines are giving the 21 gun salute, they are using the battle rifle and fire only 1 round in the volley, followed by another round and another in the 2nd and 3rd volley completing the 21 gun salute. does this mean that the battle rifle will now have 3 round burst along with semi automatic? back before the release of Halo 2 there was a look of the multiplayer and they had said that when the weapon was zoomed it would fire semi automatic but unzoomed it would fire in burst mode. is this what might happen here as well?[[User:Hollywood101x|Hollywood]] 02:48, 20 September 2007 (UTC)


The battle rifle is a select-fire weapon, capable of 1 and 3 shot bursts, along with full automatic. The three round burst is the only mode illustrated in gameplay. EDIT: Forgot to sign.

== Tactics Changes ==
Well, I'm not sure if it's just me, but I figure and I do usually use the "BR" for even close range use in Halo 3 multiplayer, and it is quite effective, does anyone disagree? I'm just asking cause I thought that people might disgaree with some of the changes such as it(BR) being able to used as a close quarters combat weapon.

-Point-
Heads shots are effective and experienced and great marksmen in Halo 3 are able to obtain headshots in close quarters, thus taking the shield down at a much quicker rate of fire.[[User:Oy0sh1o|Oy0sh1o]] 18:57, 5 August 2008 (UTC)

== Major Marine weapon question regarding BR ==

In the UNSC Marine wikia page, it says that the BR55 is actually the standard issue rifle of the UNSC Marine corps from Halo 2 onward, and that the Assault Rifle MA5C is actually a naval ship weapon designed for close quarters battle on ships.  Is this true or only fan speculation?[[User:24.15.64.119|24.15.64.119]] 04:05, 13 August 2008 (UTC)jake\

Dunno last time I checked the UNSC Marine standard issue rifle was actually the MA5C ( I mean well you see like 10,000 of them in the game and uncommonly armed with a BR.) I think its speculation. Futhermore the MA5C ( note its called an ASSAULT Rifle) seems like a future variant of the Thompson or the m4a1 due to its somewhat smaller size. I think its rather a tactical speculation yet not a true one. Oh and did you find the source for it?  Cause I really doubt that the player manual would even state that.  [[User:Oy0sh1o|Oy0sh1o]] 17:28, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

The BR55 WAS the standard issue rifle in Halo 2 but then the MA5C Succeded it because it was over powered, still it is the best gun in the halo universe no doubt.[[User talk:Gunnery Sargeant Stacker|Gunnery Sargeant Stacker]] 20:55, November 2, 2009 (UTC) 

Yeah I agree with you, this is just what somebody wrote on the UNSC Marine Corps page, saying the Halo 3 BR is the Marine's main weapon and the MA5C is only a naval trooper weapon for use on ships in close quarters.  However, Bungie kinda proves him wrong in their "profile" of the MA5C where they "interviewed" Marines using it on the front lines.  It's a marine weapon no doubt.  But someone should fix that page.[[User:IamSecretSanta|IamSecretSanta]] 18:00, 13 August 2008 (UTC)jake

Yes, it has been prooved that the MA5C is the standard issue weapon of the UNSC Marines. The BR is a sharpshooter's weapon, assuming they don't have a Sniper Rifle around to shoot.

This Weapon is one of my alltime favorite Weapons.Its,when right used,the second powerfulest Sniperweapon after the Sniperrifle and the Laserbeam.Just my opinion.

Laserbeam? i take it you mean the particle beam rifle? When i use the BR in multi-player its hit-damage is pathetic. maybe i have a handi-cap on without knowing it. ppl kill me with like 3 bursts to the chest. i give em four to the head and theyer fine.[[User talk:Maiar|Maiar]] 08:50, 20 January 2009 (UTC)

IN halo 2 when you first get it it sucks because you aim up, fire, and it shoots this pathetic 3 round burst and your like,Dude, is this really the replacement for the good ole MA5B? it sucks? And then you lean to use it and your like,     DUDE this Gun PWNS ASS! Wooh! die covie B***hs and then in HAlo 3 your like were is my BR? ooo yay i have a AR, Wait this gun Sucks Haard!

== Under-rated? ==

I think in some aspects of this article the BR is slightly underated. I say this because the article makes it seem like the weapon is totally inaffective at close range. Yes I understand that it's not designed for close range, but with some skill it can acually be an moderately effective short range weapon. If you play matchmaking then you know what I'm talking about. Either you or someone else is charging an enemy with a close range automatic weapon and they get killed with the BR in fairly close range.

== Name Again ==

Let's break it down.

The article title is "BR55HB SR Battle Rifle", though the ''Halo 3'' manual identifies the weapon as simply "BR55HB SR".

"BR" clearly stands for "Battle Rifle" -- the ''Halo 2'' battle rifle was just the "BR55", so what else would it stand for?

"Battle Rifle 55HB SR Battle Rifle."

We have a problem: the repetition of the weapon's name. So we could truncate it to:

"Battle Rifle 55HB SR."

That, however, begs the question of what "HB" and "SR" really stand for. "B" may refer to "Barrel", as in the lengthened barrel compared to the BR55; if that's the case, then "H" describes either another trait of the weapon or is some adjective or modifier on the word "barrel". The Trivia speculates that "HB" is "Heavy Barrel"; I didn't see where in the article it mentioned any added weight on the barrel, but I know the barrel was changed (lengthened) from that of the BR55, so "Barrel" is probably accurate. The Trivia also speculates that "SR" is "Scoped Rifle".

So now we have "Battle Rifle 55 [Heavy Barrel[?]] [Scoped Rifle[?]]."

Another redundancy, one that I haven't noticed in ''any'' other fully-canonical weapon names. I think that "R", and possibly also "S", stand for something else. The point is, "''BR''55HB SR ''Battle Rifle''" is redundant. On a related note, "BR55 Battle Rifle" has the same problem. <span style="background:#AADDAA;display:inline-block;height:16px;padding-right:4px;line-height:1em;position:relative;top:-3px;-moz-border-radius:0 50% 50%"><b>[[Image:DavidJCobb_Emblem.svg|16px]] [[User:DavidJCobb|<span style="color:#000;position:relative;top:.15em">DavidJCobb&nbsp;</span>]]</b></span> 01:22, 29

== Pic? ==

You think we should take off the pic of the marine "firing full automatic with the BR"? I mean, we can't really show that through pictures, since we could just put up a picture of someone firing, and you can just edit a GIF to loop. I'm not saying that it can't fire full auto, since I know it can, it's just that we can't prove it with pictures. We can with videos, as long as it isn't just somebody firing full auto for its entirety, but such a video wouldn't be worth it to put on the article, and the only one we have is Landfall, anyway.

In the changes section it says that the Halo 2 version does not spread...Does it mean spreading while stationary (not moving, nor a moving target) or spreading while moving? If the latter, If you look at one spot and shoot while turning, it will leave 3 seperate bullet holes in the wall you shoot.

-Yes, it has been prooved that the MA5C is the standard issue weapon of the UNSC Marines. The BR is a sharpshooter's weapon, assuming they don't have a Sniper Rifle around to shoot
-NO accually because the halo encyclopedia says this about the BR55 series:''                                                                                                                                   When nothing else gets the job done, the BR55 will do. As the standard gun for all UNSC forces, the BR55 is the easiest gun to pick up and use. Almost al soldeirs have trained with it, making its slight defects less noticable, while accentuating its high rate of fire and accuracy. With both semi-automatic and burst-fire modes, the BR55 is the backbone of all UNSC armed forces.''
-... and this about the MA5 series:''                                                                                                                                                                                                     The inaccuracy of the Assault rifle has rendered it obsolete on most battlefields, and its weakend attack against energy shields makes it a liabillity against the Covenant. However, due to its large clip and high rate of fire, the MA5 is ideal for expeditionary forces, where accuracy is often secondary to firepower.''

-While I understand that that is what the Encyclopedia says it also makes several errors, such as stating that the MA5C has a 24 round clip.  Also, you will notice that while that is what the Encyclopedia says, if you look at gameplay the MA5C is used far more by the UNSC Marine Corps. Also please check your spelling when you quote something.  When you put something in quotation marks you are pretty much saying that you are writing it EXACTLY as the book says. If you think about it really hard, you will notice that it is a designated marksman's rifle, not a standard infantry weapon. The Halo Encyclopedia says on the same page that the MA5C has a 24 round clip and then has a 60 round clip.  Personally, I find that Bungie doesn't know shit about firearms.

-First of all, you have no sources to back this up. Secondly, the rounds involved use two different casings, are most likely loaded to different pressures, and cannot be interchanged unless the firearm itself is extensively modified to accept the other round (in this case, 7.62 NATO); modifications including lengthening the magazine well to accept a magazine that takes 7.62 NATO rounds, as the projectile is 51 millimeters long as opposed to 40 millimeters; a 7.62 NATO chamber and bore, and a new bolt to enable extracting and ejecting the spent casing. There may be more but that's the minimum; it's hard to talk specifics when one of the cartridges in question is fictional.
-"Ypu can use two different rounds if you swap out the bolt and barrel. Example of this would be the Bushmaster ACR that can fire 5.56mm and 6.8mm."
-.56 NATO and 6.8 SPC rounds are similar in length (45mm and 43mm), and 6.8 SPC weapons are often modified from 5.56 weapons systems (the AR-15, for instance). Thus, this is why you only have to change the bolt and barrel assembly, as well as the magazine, as 6.8 SPC rounds may not feed from 5.56 magazines. 7.62 NATO is much longer than the 9.5mm round used in the BR55 (51mm as opposed to 40mm). As noted above, the weapon requires extensive modification. Think AR-15 and AR-10.

-::::Jugus is an admin and I doubt he'd upload fake images. Don't accuse him of uploading fake images.--{{User:Spartacus/Sig}}
-:::::I was not saying he is uploading fake images. The quotation around the word '''fake''' should give you the hint that I was making a sarcastic remark....... funny how you didn't detect it.

-:::::::Fix your attitude. One thing here is that you don't ever do something like that, even if it's sarcastic.--{{User:Spartacus/Sig}}
-::::::::Thank you, Jugus, for uploading the pictures. I now see that it is the same variant, but perhaps it's a different version or model or something along those lines since it's appearance is very different. Thanks again! :) - Guest 21:11, 8 March 2012 (EST)
-:::::::::Well according to the newest Bulletin 343 is continuing Bungie's tradition of having the wrong name on the weapon. It's the BR85HB SR[[User talk:ArchedThunder|ArchedThunder]] 21:32, 15 March 2012 (EDT)

-:::::::::::Yea, I saw that. That means that it is a new model and not a different variant. The name is probably a placeholder. - Guest 21:35, 15 March 2012 (EST)

-:::::::::::::Thank you! There was probably a simpler way to do it than the way I did, but it wouldn't let me undo the specific edit, and I wasn't sure which image was used as the main image, so I didn't want to edit it. - [[User talk:DefeatingLine|DefeatingLine]] 12:02, 18 March 2012 (EDT)
-== Chinese Assault Rifle ==
-The other day I was playing Modern Warfare 3's Survival Mode. I was armed with a Chinese QBZ 95 with ACOG scope. When I fired it, I was shocked, because I was hearing the Battle Rifle sound clip. Futhermore, the first-person view of the QBZ 95 ACOG looks almost exactly like the BR55HB. I was wondering if Bungie used the QBZ 95 for the Battle Rifle's sound file, and whether or not the first person view is a coincidence? --[[User talk:Sierra 109|Sierra 109]] 14:33, 6 April 2012 (EDT)
-==The infobox data is not showing==
-Hey, I don't know if this was intended or not, but I couldn't but notice that some (or perhaps most) of the information that is supposed to show in the weapon infobox, yet for some odd reason, it is not showing up like it's supposed to. Could somebody fix this? I tried, but I think something is missing that would allow the information to show when the changes are saved. A little help here would be most welcome. --[[User talk:Xamikaze330|Xamikaze330]] 19:05, 13 October 2012 (EDT)Xamikaze330
