Yet another Halo battle rifle redesign!

I decided do this because I don't really like the battle rifle as remade by 343i in Halo 4 and 5. It looks too much like they added random detail to a FAMAS and called it a day, in the process making it harder to identify and almost look more like an alien gun than a human weapon from the future. I thought the original BR in Halo 2 and 3 struck a nice balance between looking futuristic and looking like a human gun that shoots bullets (in contrast to colorful alien death blobs). I've been thinking about this for a while, and here is the previous design I did several years ago, as featured on halo.bungie.org: prinzeugn.deviantart.com/art/H…

Basically, I've been learning a lot more about gun design, especially from Forgotten Weapons on YouTube, and just had to go back and try again to make a new BR. I think this is a much more "realistic" design without so many nonsensical parts.

Here is the original set of sketches, the closest to this one is the top left: prinzeugn.deviantart.com/art/H…
