[MOC} MA40 Assault Rifle from Halo Infinite

[Sucram]

I was wanting to buy a prop Assault Rifle from Halo to run around with, and then thought I could just build one out of Lego. What I ended up with is something that's a bit too heavy / fragile to run around with, but it does look pretty cool.

The build is inspired by Nick Brick's MA37 build, which I used as a guide to get the proportions and sizing right. Mine isn't as complex as his, but I'm not nearly as good a builder as him.

The ammo counter is Nick Brick's design, it's pretty faithful to the games.

The mag is a lot smaller than it should be, but when I was building the gun I didn't have the foresight to make a hollow space to allow a larger mag.

I also made a video that shows off the features and has some dramatic recreations of the 1st person view of the games. 

This was super satisfying to make and I definitely want to make more Halo guns, once I can find the space (and money) for them. Top of my list would be the Sniper Rifle, Commando, Sidekick and Battle Rifle.

Wow. This is amazing and captures the detail of the in - game product.
