M45D Tactical Shotgun

The M45D Tactical Shotgun is the UNSC shotgun that will be featured in the upcoming installment Halo 4.

Announcement
The weapon was announced at the Halo 4 panel at the Rooster Teeth Expo. Not much is known about the new weapon except its appearance and the fact that it will appear in Halo 4. The design is consistent with 343 Industries' mandate that all Halo 4 weapons will have a sci-fi look. It is not known whether Weapon System Technologies, the manufacturer of the DTM series, will be the manufacturer of this model of shotgun. It seems likely that a new manufacturer makes this weapon since its look is drasticly different from the M90 series of shotguns and the M45 shotgun. It uses a 6 round magazine, much like the M45 Tactical Shotgun from Halo: Reach. It could be a newer model of shotgun that is currently phasing out the M90.
