"The devil works hard but the homesteader works harder."

- Anonymous Colonial Guardsmen during the Battle of Sarjana

The M388 Designated Marksman Rifle, and its later rebrand the M450 ‘Homesteader’ Range Defense Rifle are a series of marksman rifles used first by the UNSC and Colonial Military Administration, then later by numerous civilian, law enforcement agencies, colonial militia, and insurrectionist groups.
