Proving that I may, in fact, be the biggest geek on the planet (or at least FR)....

1. Notice the slightly darker top part on the phaser? That’s because the prop comes apart, with the small soap bar piece becoming a “Phaser 1”, the compact alternative to the more powerful (but conspicuous) “Phaser 2”.

2. Unless I miss my guess, that phaser pic is from the episode “Court Martial” in which Kirk is accused of killing Ben Finney (that’s Finney holding the phaser).

Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to go do some calculus and then write a love poem completely in ForTran.

This isn't fictional but pretty close ...

Can't believe the M41 Pulse Rifle from Aliens didn't make the list...

I've had a soft-spot for the Logan's Run gun...
I love how they looked when they fired, even though they didn't have a really great sound effect.

Actual firearm: the Gyrojet rocket launcher.

The Gyrojet ignited solid-fuelled rockets that streaked downrange in the general direction you were pointing it.

I’m partial to the plastic handgun crafted by John Malkovich in In the Line of Fire.

The real star of No Country For Old Men. Hint: it's not the shooter.

How about Vermin's revolver, it shoots through schools?

But most of the time kids are always shooting themselves or trying to hold up liquor stores or something, and that sucks.

Oh barf!

I prefer to think of the homeowners protecting them selves taking out the home invaders.....

My favorite mythical gun was Josh Randall’s “Mares leg” which appeared to be a model 92 Winchester shortened front and back.

Now the gun would have been a normal gun if it fired 44-40 ammo but this one somehow fired around a dozen 45-70 rounds which is what was on his gun belt. Of course that short underbarrel mag could not have held more than one of those if that.

Still it was a neat looking gun and different from all the other 1873 Colt Peacemakers everyone else used.

I was always quite partial to the infantry weapons in “Aliens”—the singe-man crew-served “smart gun” and the M41A pulse rifle. Badass!

I have two contenders:

First,

The Death Star's Super Laser...

Then,

Anyone who played Doom and Doom II knows the BFG9000!

They forgot The Rifleman. Lucas McCain used a modified 1892 Winchester SRC in .44-.40 caliber.

Where's the plastic gun from In the Line of Fire (I think that was the movie). The assassin makes it himself out of plastic to pass through the metal detectors.
