During the production of Halo: Reach, several weapons were concepted and implemented - though ultimately cut for various reasons.
Civilian weapons
These civilian weapons were concepted by Glenn Israel in 2009 and later modelled for inclusion in-game. These were not intended to appear as useable weapons for any player or character, and instead simply decorative props that could be found in some of the "pioneer" environments in levels such as Winter Contingency and Nightfall.[1][2]
The weapons remain in the files of the Halo: Reach Alpha build, listed with the following names;[3][4]

It is likely these were intended for use by the farmers and Reach militia encountered in the third level of the game, Nightfall.

The shotgun design was later featured in Issue #18 of Halo: Escalation.
The Unidentified shotgun being wielded by Holly Tanaka.
Forerunner staff
The object named forerunner_staff can be found in the files for the Halo: Reach DLC tag build. It is unclear as to what purpose the staff would have served, given the game's predominantly-human focus - though it may have been intended for usage on the game's DLC maps.[5]
