Template:Ratings Template:Weapon The MA2B Assault Rifle is a cut-down version of the United Nations Space Command's standard MA5B Individual Combat Weapon System. It sees sparse service among UNSC Special Forces units.[1]
Background
Like its relatives in the MA5 family, the MA2B is tough and reliable. It has electric targeting, an ammo supply indicator, and a recoil-reduction system. The MA2B can deliver an impressive fifteen rounds per second and uses .390 caliber ammunition.[2]
In addition to the standard armor-piercing rounds found in most human firearms, the MA2B can utilize "Shredder" rounds: anti-personnel ammunition type made from depleted uranium.[2]
The SPARTAN-IIs used the MA2B when they were required to carry very little ordnance for a mission. Blue Team used MA2Bs on their first combat mission to capture Colonel Robert Watts of the United Rebel Front.[2]
