The '''BR55HB SR Battle Rifle''' is a bullpup, burst-fire [[UNSC]] rifle that fires the 9.5x40mm X-HP-SAP(Experimental High Power Semi-Armor Piercing) round, which is actually a larger bullet than an assault rifle round, giving more power but also more recoil. It fires from a 36 round magazine which fits flush in the receiver. The receiver is built directly into the butt of the gun and is located behind the grip (known as a bullpup configuration). This gun fires in three round bursts due to difficult handling while firing automatically and actually is only fired 12 times before needing to be reloaded. | The '''BR55HB SR Battle Rifle''' is a bullpup, burst-fire [[UNSC]] rifle that fires the 9.5x40mm X-HP-SAP(Experimental High Power Semi-Armor Piercing) round, which is actually a larger bullet than an assault rifle round, giving more power but also more recoil.

This titanium alloy weapon is gas operated with a rotating bolt and therefore must be cocked before the first round can be fired. The bolt used to chamber the round is located on the left side of the weapon and does not move during operation. From then on, the gases from the previous rounds rotate the bolt inside and continue to chamber rounds until the mag is empty. Once the mag is empty, the bolt (even though not illustrated in either [[Halo 2]] or [[Halo 3]]) | This titanium alloy weapon is gas operated with a rotating bolt and therefore must be cocked before the first round can be fired.

From then on, the gases from the previous rounds rotate the bolt inside and continue to chamber rounds until the mag is empty. Once the mag is empty, the bolt (even though not illustrated in either [[Halo 2]] or [[Halo 3]])can either be pulled back and locked or it can be fully cycled after a fresh mag has been housed. If it is pulled back and locked,then it must be pushed forward once a fresh mag is housed to chamber a new round. The ejection port is located on the right side of the weapon. | ||
