FRom what I can tell, this is a Covenant weapon. So when a Spartan holds it, it is bigger than a standard plasma pistol. It looks roughtly the size of a regular assault rilfe without a stock. This was an alien weapon to begin so it was not really meant to be defined by humans as a rifle by our standards.
