By 2552, a modification package of the then latest revision of the M6 pistol series was released.<ref name="B.netH3"/> This | By 2552, a modification package of the then latest revision of the M6 pistol series was released.<ref name="B.netH3"/> This version of the M6 was used by [[UNSC Marine Corps|UNSC Marines]] stationed on [[Earth]] during the fall of 2552. It sports the same general design and proportions as the aforementioned version, despite a subtly longer barrel and lack of an underslung attachment. While its rate of fire is only half that of its predecessor, (roughly 120 rounds per minute), its accuracy is superior.<ref name="B.netH3"/> The top attachment plate's mounting pins are closer to the muzzle. The slide has vertical serrations and a flat rear. The magazine release is set just in front of the safety switch and has a thin, rectangular lip akin to earlier M6 models. The striker is recessed into the slide as on a 21st-century [[Wikipedia:Glock|Glock]]. The 2552 model was later recorded in [[Machines, Materiel and Munitions from the Human-Covenant Conflict, 2525 - Present]].<ref name="B.netH3"/> | ||
