The M6H Personal Defense Weapon System is a handgun in service with the UNSC. It is part of Misriah Armory's widespread M6 series. The M6H was in service as an officer's model[1] as early as 2526[2][3] and was made the standard-issue sidearm of all UNSC personnel in 2555.[4]
Specifications
The M6H is a semi-automatic, recoil-operated, magazine-fed handgun. It is an up-sized model (17% larger than standard versions) with a smart-linked KFA-2 x2 scope and an electroless nickel finish.[1] It fires the M6 series' standard 12.7x40mm ammunition. The M6H is effective at reasonably long distances as well as its preferred close-to-medium-range.[4]
Gameplay
Changes from the M6G PDWS in Halo: Reach
- Red and yellow elements replaced with matte gray and off-white; no manufacturer's markings.
- Modified reload animation; altered firing and reload sounds.
- Less damage to shields, requiring five shots to disable shields instead of four.
- Higher accuracy, less bloom.
