TheHalo Infinitecampaign is out now, meaning fans can finally experience Master Chief’s latest adventure. Following the release of the game, the reception has been mostly positive. While this latest entry to the series retains manyelements of classicHalo, it manages to include some striking new additions, such as several never-before-seen weapons. One of these original guns is the Mk50 Sidekick.
Found inHalo Infinite, the Mk50 Sidekick is a human pistol used by the UNSC. As the name suggests, the weapon works well as a secondary gun during battle. While this sidearm might not have the same power as theM6D Pistol fromCombat Evolvedor even the M6H Magnum fromHalo 5, it still packs a punch with a 12 round magazine and rapid semi-automatic fire. Recently, one fan decided to replicate the look of this gun using a 3D printer.
