{{Quote|''The workhorse of the Cabal field arsenal, this weapon's apparent simplicity belies the technology behind it. Each round is a micro rocket capable of efficient operation in varying environmental and gravitational conditions. Standard-issue warheads mount a duplex explosive that combines an armor-piercing penetrator with a flesh-shredding shrapnel bus.''


''Cabal forces on Mars favor rockets with low velocity but high impact, perhaps due to their effectiveness against the Vex.

The '''Slug Rifle''' is a weapon commonly used by [[Legionary|Legionaries]], [[Phalanx]]es, and [[Psion]]s. Sometimes [[Centurion]]s utilize them.

==Overview==
==Overview==
These weapons deal [[Solar]] damage. These weapons may or may not be linked to the [[Cabal Battle Network]]. Some [[Red Legion]] soldiers continue to wield them, as do the [[Loyalists]]. Minor (red bar) [[Legionary|Legionaries]], [[Psion]]s, and [[Phalanx]]es fire these weapons in three-, four-, or five-round bursts. When the target is on a Sparrow, these enemies fire their weapons in long, rapid bursts.

[[Valus Thuun]] uses a weapon with two fire modes. The primary fire is a Slug Rifle with a faster fire rate and higher impact. The secondary fire is a unique grenade launcher, referred to as a ''Concussion Rifle'', that fires Arc blasts that can knock back [[Guardian]]s. [[Ghalak the Colossus, Forge Warden]] uses a modified version of Valus Thuun's customized Slug Rifle, dubbed Red Legion Slug Rifle. It includes a drum magazine, a foregrip, and a wire linking to his arm with the exception of excluding the suppression launcher that his predecessor once possessed.

The [[Taken]] version of the weapon shoots faster-moving Arc slugs and is usually fired in longer bursts.
