The Weapon/Anti-Vehicle Model 6 Grindell/Galileian Nonlinear Rifle[1], more commonly known as the Galileian [2] Spartan Laser, or abbreviated as the "W/AV M6 G/GNR", is a United Nations Space Command weapon.
Introduction
It is a shoulder-mounted infantry-size directed energy weapon, highly unusual for the UNSC, as most of its weaponry is consisted of ballistic metal projectiles. It fires a red laser beam that is similar to the Sentinel Beam, but is much more powerful.[3] The resultant beam is very powerful, and can destroy vehicles and infantry upon a hit.
Operation
Targeting
When the trigger is pulled, a harmless red dot is projected on the target. The laser will then charge for three seconds[4] before firing a massive, blood red laser beam that destroys everything in its path.
The Spartan Laser is equipped with a smart-linked Wyrd III optics suite for increased accuracy.
In Halo 3 multiplayer, when one gets a kill with the Spartan Laser (on a vehicle or not) a sniper medal is awarded. This is because the beam that is shot is sniper like and it is very hard to aim and kill with it.
Laser Beam
If the player manages to keep their reticule on their target when the beam fires, the enemy will be killed in one hit. The Galileian "Spartan Laser" can even destroy a vehicle in one hit, possibly making it the usurper of the Halo 2-era Rocket Launcher in Halo 3. The beam is also known to have splash damage at its impact point. The weapons has 4 shots before a "recharge" is needed.[4]

The laser beam can destroy a vehicle.
A player fires a Galileian "Spartan Laser" in Valhalla
It is powered by a BA-53635/PLMD non-replacable battery, which is recharged with a PP-16979/AM-Sh charger. However, UNSC logistics are sufficiently inadequate for the charger to not accompany many W/AV M6 G/GNR units in the field.
Other
- From a screen shot in a magazine (shown to the right) The spartan on the hill has shot his Spartan Laser but there are multiple beams coming out. Bungie did state though that it fires a single beam. This could mean there are multiple Spartan Lasers on map which could mean that there could also be one (or more) at each base instead of possible Rocket Launchers. However, it could mean that in this shot it is firing multiple projectiles as it is still in the pre-alpha stage, and the processor is not yet coded for sustained-beam projectiles or 3rd dimension tracers.
Inspiration for the use in Halo 3 In Halo Custom Edition,you can see a player on the level Chronopolis holding what apears to be a Spartan Laser. I'm still looking for that video of it,more will be posted soon.
