The developers had openly said in an interview that their assault rifle had a coincidence resemblance to the F2000, but it was not intentional. They didn't say anything about anything else

Hey, doesn't the M41 Pulse Rifle have an ammo readout too?
Could be the Halo AR is a mashup.
Marathon AR, M41 Pulse Rifle, FN F2000...
Too bad it shoots so poorly for a CARBINE in 7.62x51.

The ammo reader has popped up in other sci fi games too. In Starcraft we see a cutscene of a Marine firing his rifle at the Zerg had an ammo counter on it.

I wouldn't call the Halo assault rifle MA5 series a mash up with the M!41A Pulse Rifle because it looks nothing like it. It just got an ammo counter that most likely was inspired by the pulse rifle.

It's really annoying that it DOES shoot a 7.62 and is inaccurate as hell and when fired, it has somewhat light sounding gun shots. the Halo 3 version of the rifle was a bit more accurate
