User:Turbogruntman117/MA5K Mark II Modular Assault Weapon System

The MA5K Mark II went into service during the beginning of the Human-Covenant Remnant war. It could be modified to extreme lengths, even to where it could comfortably fit in a Sangheili, Unggoy, or Human hand.

History
After the main Covenant were defeated, the UNSC struggled to develope a Combat System that could be issued to Humans, Unggoy and Sangheili without changing the main structure of the weapon. It could be modified to have the following attachments:
 * Cut down Plasma Rifle
 * Grenade Launcher
 * Scope
 * It could be refitted into a Sniper Rifle
 * Plasma Rifle-like Trigger
 * EMP grenade launcher
 * Ammo Counter
 * Compass
 * Sound Suppressor
 * Compensator
 * Laser Sight
 * Underslung Shotgun
 * Tracking Sentry Launcher
 * Dumb-AI [Only available to High ranking officers or ODSTs]
 * Small Shield system
 * Flashlight
 * Small "Bare Bone" needler
 * Bayonette

These attachments allowed the MA5K Mark II to fit many combat roles.

Advantages
The verastality of the MA5K allowed a quick, all purpose weapon to be available to a squad and still be used after a mission objective was completed without the need to restock on weapons. It could be easily held by a Sangheili, Unggoy, or Human, and was tailored to each individual soldier's species.

Disadvantages
The verastality also caught the eyes of Insurrectionists due to its low cost and high quantity. It also was very loud and had a moderate amount of recoil if a silencer of compensator was not added.
