I posted this in Discord for Turbo but figured I can add it here. - Credit to finding it on Reddit

Also holy heck I love the look of the BR. This will be the first Infinite weapon I make for sure.

Also anyone else think that the charging handle on the MA40 is obnoxiously large?

It says MK5D Sidekick, Cal 10mm, SN: 2240-12

Here are some more, this will make it easier now to blueprint these for propmaking.
If you got more reference pics, post them all here for everyone to see.

The side view of the Commando was really helpful since there was no view like it in the trailer and doing squiffy geometry to figure out angles on parts was not fun.
 
Okay, the new pistol was depressingly generic enough. But bloody 10mm instead of.50cal? Come on.
They up production & used 12.7mm round weapons because of Covenant shielding technology & physiologies during the war, the UNSC threw everything at em. The idea was to have stopping power by dumping energy into the shielding systems as priority causing increase shielding failure rates. After the war, they scaled back war productions so resources can be reallocated for reconstruction, you can save quite a bit of metal for other things. I don't think 343i did this deliberately as a durp, from a lore perspective, it makes sense.

The .50 magnum was in use long before the covies came, and the shielded aliens are still one of the biggest threats the UNSC face. It doesn’t make sense in universe for this change, especially with how much a wrench that would throw into their galaxy spanning logistics.

True that they have been in-service as standard issue for 300ish years all together from the information that I had put together, but we don't know if any other in-service small arms like 9mm or 10mm had serve alongside as standard issue as well with the 12.7mm. The UNSC must've chose 12.7mm quickly to be manufactured the only priority as the Covenant came knocking as a desperate attempt. After the war, they must've put 12.7mm back into limited standard service alongside the others before the war or chose 10mm as a middle ground round to save material & manufacturing cost. Really it comes down to UEG politics, no different than our world today when it comes to a nation's defense spending, contracting & field-testing. Who knows if also the 10mm has a higher muzzle velocity using the SideKick to deliver the same or great energy deliverance to the 12.7mm (looking at length of it, barrel is slightly longer than the M6 series.) Human space is no more than 100 light years across, that's what logistical dumb & smart AIs are for, they sort the ammo & weapon assets stuff out so no wreach is thrown in messing anything up.

From what I been reading on Halo Waypoint, Halo: Infinite information dumb a few days ago is implied their going to try & bring every armour & weapon piece into Infintie's sandbox given how versatile the new game engine is with adding new assets with ease without having to fine-tune the entire game engine again, right there we going to get M6 magnum series back alongside the MK50 pistol from the looks of it with post-launch content both from a gameplay & lore perspective. Good chance also the M90 shotgun as well where that behaves like a powerful long-range SPAS-12 with the Bulldog CQS48 behaving like a weak short-range Armsel Striker. Come to think of it, both the shotgun & pistol do fire weaker & smaller rounds, I don't think this a bad intention, they're definitely gonna bring back the M90/M45 & M6 series. They just want to show off some new stuff first. Hopefully the MA5 series as well & hopefully after 15 years of waiting, the most fan requested, MA5K.

I’d be down if they wanted to make the sidekick something like the H2 magnum, and implement the M6 as the magnum usually performs. However, I still don’t see a place in the sandbox for the new shotgun. Seriously, that drum mag would severely screw up infection, and the shotgun’s balancing. On that note, I’d prefer the M90 to return over the M45.

They'll make it similar to the Halo 2's mechanic, very slow & long reload times but have an increase effective range like Reach & pack more of a punch. With the bulldog from what we seen it has fast reload, fire rate & looks to have a shorter range similar to the Halo 2's one. As mentioned 343i just have to implement that balance, do the oppersite of the bulldog. Like what they did in BF3 & 4 with the shotguns how they balance out all the shotgun models.

Eh. I’d still prefer the bulldog was simply dropped. It still doesn’t feel like it will fit, and well, the M90s all we need.
 
Here are the latest references pics, alot better these ones.

Hello!
Good night.
I don't know if my job serves you.
Design the Templates of some Halo Infinite Weapons, in case they work for you.
Among the friends who helped me are ODCA Props, TurboCharizard and Isaac TR.
- Battle Rifle BR75: - VK78 Commando Rifle: - Magnum MK50 Sidekick: - Assault Rifle MA40:

The MA-40 looks downright amazing, something that I'd see a rifle looking in the next 20+ years actually. The charging handle's size actually seems reasonably sized considering today's exotic AR15 side chargers, the new 6.8 rifle the army's getting, and taking chief's hand size into account.

There's hints of the M6C redux from H2A and the the M6D in the Mk.50 Sidekick, I've been able to get over the aesthetic, and actually quite dig it. Being 10mm is odd when the SAS-10 as per HALO: LAST LIGHT was in 10mm Auto as well and was stated as being ineffectual against mjolnir let alone Jiralhanae "power armor" and their appropriate shielding systems. So in the past 4 years, after a further 573 years since it was developed; the UNSC managed a super-duper super-hot hot-loaded cartridge chambering that wouldn't have a major warning of an extreme of caution to use? Sorry, that's my only gripe; that's a little whacko and crap.

Now, the BR-75? I want, want, want, want it so much. I think outside of H2A and the Original BR-55, this is THE best version of the 'ole gal we've seen yet. I actually could imagine it as a rifle that came to service somewhere in the world around 2010.

Now here comes the only real negative I'm gonna throw into the works. I dislike the VK78 as a halo weapon, on an almost instinctual level. I'd expect to have seen this in the animated Starship Troopers movies, some generic sci-fi game, a mobile shooter, or a cheesy B-rated sci-fi movie. I can appreciate the fact that 343 went out of their way to give us another quirky long gun for the UNSC arsenal, but the design doesn't scream halo to me nor does it scream UNSC anything as well, maybe an independently developed URF or NCA weapon but not our boys and gals in green. That being said its certainly interesting what with the Kriss Vector style magazine area, has a bit of the Stoner LMG to it, there's an abrupt jump between the end line of the bottom of the weapon and its handguard that mess with an almost very clean in the bottom, and that computer gizmo part above the fire control group and the trigger looks like something I'd see from the OICW project in the 90's. Going of the OICW like parts, this clearly isn't the MA series in any vague way in design, nor is it hinting at a project salvo kind of requirement from the UNSC's weapons procurement, I get that we have the weapon counter component but without the scope or under-barrel weaponry to require such a high-tech setup in a weapon its a very confused design to say the least.
 
Nice of 343i to go out of their way to show us the weapon decals in extreme detail. These will help massively to be recreated in Illustrator & to print them out.
