'''Monte Carlo''' is an [[Exotic]] [[Auto Rifle]] introduced exclusively in Destiny for PlayStation players. The rifle looks different from many other [[auto rifle]]s in that the front of the weapon has a bayonet. It was once a purely cosmetic attachment that could not be used until the introduction of its catalyst in [[Season of the Witch]], which allowed players to utilize it for powerful melee attacks. A Year Two version of Monte Carlo was reintroduced in ''[[The Taken King]]''. It was reintroduced in ''[[Destiny 2]]'' during ''[[Season of the Undying]]'' in the ''[[Shadowkeep]]'' annual pass.
'''Monte Carlo''' is a Level 40 [[Exotic]] [[Auto Rifle]]. The rifle looks different from many other [[auto rifle]]s in that the front of the weapon looks like a bayonet. Unfortunately, this is only a novelty. The rifle is in the middle-ground archetype for Rate of Fire and Impact, and has much higher Stability and reload speed than many other [[auto rifle]]s in this archetype. A Year Two version of Monte Carlo was reintroduced in ''[[The Taken King]]''.
 
It was introduced into Destiny 2 during the Shadowkeep Expansion and Season of Undying

The Year One version of Monte Carlo was only available in the PS3 & PS4 versions of ''[[Destiny]]'' until September 2015, after which is was made available across both platforms ([[Xbox]] and [[PlayStation]]). Upgrades increase the weapon's hip fire effectiveness and reduces the cooldown for the player's melee ability, providing a firm grounding for close range domination.<ref name = "ExclusivePS4">[http://blog.us.playstation.com/2014/06/16/destinys-playstation-exclusive-content-detailed/ '''Playstation Blog''' - ''Destiny's PlayStation-Exclusive Content Detailed'']</ref>

*The gun's name and descriptive text are a reference to the [[wikipedia:Monte Carlo method|Monte Carlo method]], which is a mathematical modeling method used to simulate complex phenomena and probabilities, such as the behavior of liquids and gases, the development of galaxies, and a number of other practical and theoretical applications.

*Given that it comes with the unique perk Markov Chain, it could also be a reference to the [[wikipedia:Markov chain|Markov Chain]], which is a class of algorithms for sampling from a probability distribution. By constructing a Markov chain that has the desired distribution as its equilibrium distribution, one can obtain a sample of the desired distribution by recording states from the chain. The more steps that are included, the more closely the distribution of the sample matches the actual desired distribution.
**It’s also possible, that it’s name might reference to [https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monte_Carlo Monte Carlo], a city within [https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monaco Monaco]. Due to it’s ornament in D1, called the “Royal Flush”, which may have to do something, with Monaco, since their leadership are Princes, in which they are royalty.
*The signature perk of this weapon, the Monte Carlo Method, gives this weapon a chance to refill the user's melee attack after doing damage, and the gun also has one of the highest base reload speeds and stability amounts of any auto rifle without using any perk slots.
