LEGO builder Nick Jensen, who already has an impressive arsenal of replica Halo weapons to his name, has outdone himself with this 1:1 model of the series' trademark sniper rifle.
Based on the Halo: Reach incarnation of the weapon, it's 63 inches long, weighs over ten pounds and features a removable magazine, moving safety and sliding bolt (it doesn't actually fire, though). It also took over four months to complete.
You can check out an interview with Nick, detailing the build process and number of times he broke it during construction, at the link below.
