MA37 also known as MA5...
So, on the Reach Project Page, under ordnance, we take a closer look at the MA37 Assault Rifle to be used in Halo Reach.
You can find it [url=http://www.bungie.net/projects/reach/article.aspx?ucc=ordnance&cid=24580]here.[/url]
In the description, it says, "The MA37 (MA5 for Marines and Navy)first entered service with the UNSC in 2437, it has remained the primary service rifle of all branches of the UNSC ever since."
Seeing as how it's being referred to as the MA37, even though it's known as the MA5 to the Marines and and Navy... I'm thinking we will see a lot larger influence from the UNSC Army.
Does this excite anyone else??
EDIT: Also, on the DMR page it mentions it has since been surpassed by the BR55 in all branches but the Army.

Either MA5 is variant of MA37 (it is a bit different) or the text meant that the Marines and Navy use MA5, a different weapon... Damn English, too ambigious language... DMR replaces BR in Reach... it is clear. But since Reach has M6G pistol with scope, it is possible BR is replace by both DMR for longer range and Magnum for shorter range.
