As far as I'm concerned, CMT's MA5K rifles are only true to the cover in the academic sense: they're carbines with an ambiguous shade of gunmetal that were being wielded by Spartans.
Other than that, true resemblances are null. If you truly examine the structure and detail of the MA5K's in the high-res scans, it's just an MA5B with the electronics housing and lengthened foregrip removed. In their stead, a [rail that clips onto the rifle at the edge of the stock in front and the foreface of the comb at the back] and various auxiliary grips were added respectively. The only other difference between the MA5K and the Assault Rifle featured in H1 is that the former's muzzle has a vent on both sides.
In closing, the bolt's arm and tab should be no different than that of the MA5B or MA5C, and the bolt itself should not be located on the comb but immediately under the rear anchor of the rail. Also, the rail is pretty lame as of now. Spice it up.
