As posted on the new Brickarms Forums:

At NWBrickcon, Will Chapman of Brickarms unveiled prototypes of two HALO-inspired minifig accessories that will be included in the third mold of new Brickarms items.

First, an "MA5C-ish" item:



Second, a M6G-ish pistol:



A few things about these pictures:

- A release date for Mold #3 (which will include the M1 Garand and the above HALO items along with  few more suprises) has yet to be set as the list of items to be included in it is still in flux, and Will is still actively designing weapons to be included in it.

- Will is aware of the criticism that the MA5C-inspired weapon would work better with an angled grip and don't t be surprised if the final item takes this into account.

- Will produced these prototypes using his home CNC, and the design and colors of the weapons may or may not reflect the final items that are made for sale by Brickarms.

- Will has stated that  the energy sword that can be glimpsed in he M6G picture (and also discussed here) unforunately will not be offered in any way and was made merely as a test of the routing abilities of his home CNC. 

Enjoy!

These are great, and I can already sense the Halo vignettes! Badger, I don't know if this is true or not, but have the faithful viewers of MCN seen the M-1 Garand, un-blurred?

I'm really impressed with Will. This is just great!

guys maybe you should read the bottom half of the topic, it says that the energy swords won't be for sale, sadly :(.

Very interesting, I wonder if they will make (or already have) any covenant weapons (such as the carbine).


Were it so easy......

If they haven't yet, here 'tis:



Keep in mind that this is also a prototype, and I know for a fact that changes (for the better) will be made for the final item.  However, the internal grip-style Will has chosen for this piece will be featured in the final piece.
