My Halo 3

USNC GUNS

Pistol – Your standard handgun. It’s nothing spectacular, but it’s killer on the headshots. Burn the ammo and pitch it.

Submachine Gun (SMG) – A great weapon alone, lethal when dual-weilded. You can dish out a lot of hurt with a pair of SMG’s.

Assault Rifle – Basic rifle. No zoom, but not to be underestimated.

Battle Rifle – Decent at close range, and a good sniper thanks to the zoom. Not much ammo capacity, though.

Shotgun – Wicked in close quarters, but good for nothing at long range. It’s the anti-sniper weapon.

Sniper Rifle – Useless at close range, but unbeatable for long shots.

Rocket Launcher – Ordinarily this thing dishes a one-hit kill. Save it for the big boys.

Spartan Laser – Five shots only and it requires a charge, but it’s lethal.

In my humble opinion, the best USNC weapon in the game is the Battle rifle. It’s a great all-purpose weapon, and the zoom function improves long-range accuracy and makes it sort of a makeshift sniper rifle in a pinch. It’s good for most situations, in other words, and it’s only drawback is the ammo capacity.

The SMG is a close second, especially if you’re dual-wielding, for sheer volume of fire and ammo capacity. If it’s your style to make swiss-cheese out of everything that moves, then this is your best bet.
