The 40mm Grenade Launcher, also known colloquially as a Forty Mike Mike by [[UNSC Marine Corps|UNSC Marine]] personnel, is a [[weapon attachment]] available for the [[MA5B]] and [[MA5C]] Assault Rifles<ref>http://www.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&link=BAGAssaultRifle</ref>. Though never used in the games, it was originally meant to be part of the MA5B during the development phase of ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]'', while it was still intended for the PC. As such, its canonical was debatable until mentioned by [[Bungie]] in a description of the [http://www.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&link=BAGAssaultRifle MA5C].
 
The attachment is fitted under the barrel, replacing the [[Torch|flashlight attachment]] standard to the MA5 series, and fires 40mm grenades at the user's targets. Grenade launchers [[Wikipedia:M203 grenade launcher|of this type]] have been in usage since the mid and late 20th Century.
