Light Rifle - Halo 4

Light Rifle

The Light Rifle is akin to the Covenant Carbine or DMR. This forerunner weapon is a single shot carbine with a zoom function, and operates very much like the same as the Carbine and DMR. This precision rifle is used by Promethean Knights and is designed to hit an opponent at mid range. With it's head shot capability the Light Rifle is very accurate and very deadly. Carrying 15 shots in a magazine means you should take care not to waste ammunition.

Designated Marksman Rifle - Halo 4

Designated Marksman Rifle - DMR

Very similar to the battle rifle, but much more clinical in it's execution, the DMR fills the gap for a short-mid to mid- long range rifle. Boasting a single round shot means the user ideally wants to pick of distance targets rather than any nearby antagonist. The DMR is a precision rifle for those who lean more towards the sniper side of the action, with a zoom and head shot capability. Having 15 rounds per magazine makes the DMR stopping power and sustainability during combat high. Some soldiers have been known to spam the trigger on closer targets to surprisingly good effect.
