Best Sci Fi Weapon

Inspired (kinda) by the characters thread, and because im on a big gun kick at the moment. So, what in your opinion is the best (or your favourite) scifi weapon? A lot of good contenders here imo, Predator weapons are pretty much all good, the Starship Troopers Morita is another nice 1 for me (even though its a bullpup, damn those bullpups) but for me, it has to be The Bonejack. A shotgun designed for Blade Trinity, and subsequently used in various other shows n stuff (Stargate Atlantis used it to good effect )

But where do all the calculators go?

lol, sorry, just my opinion but I really hate that gun. Both in blade and atlantis. I think it's some old shotgun prototype that I can't recall the name of at the moment. "Version of the army's objective individual combat weapon"...yeah, not really. And it looks really stupid. But that again, only my opinion.

Is this only for infantry weapons? Or all weapons in general? 'Cause that would technically include everything like battleships and mechs, heh.

Infantry guns wise I always thought the rifle from aliens is pretty cool:

I love the E-11 Blaster Rifles that the Stormtroopers use.

I also love the Starfleet Type-3 Phaser Rifles as seen in ST: Nemesis.

Both are really awesome weapons!!

Did you know they used Thompson SMG for the template to build the Aliens Pulse Rifle?

if where talking weapons then it the Genisis devide form ST:II TWOK.

But if where talking hand hled guns, then it has to be the Peacekeepr pistol. as seen above.

A good point is made

Ok, how about we limit it to hand held and body mounted weapons i.e. the smart gun from Aliens.

All good choices btw, and no worries Berkut, having your own opinion is fine by me dude.

But where do all the calculators go?
