Battlestar Galactica: Blood & Chrome

Battlestar Galactica: Blood & Chrome (2012)

Battlestar Galactica: Blood & Chrome is a prequel television film to the reimagined Battlestar Galactica (2004) series. Taking place between the events of Caprica and the beginning of the 2004 series, this film follows rookie pilot William Adama as he begins his first assignment aboard the Battlestar Galactica during the beginning of the first Cylon War. Originally intended as a pilot for a potential television series, this film was initially released in installments on YouTube, before being later shown in its entirety on SyFy and released on home video.

The following weapons were used in the film Battlestar Galactica: Blood & Chrome:

Colonial Handgun (Revolver)

A heavily modified revolver is portrayed as the standard Colonial sidearm in both the Battlestar Galactica mini-series, the first season and in Battlestar Galactica: Blood & Chrome. These guns were inconvenient as they had to be disassembled before they could be reloaded.

Seen in use in the Battlestar Galactica mini-series.

Tech Sgt. Xander Toth (John Pyper-Ferguson) has a Colonial Handgun as his sidearm. (Pyper-Ferguson had previously played different roles in both Battlestar Galactica and Caprica.)

William "Husker" Adama (Luke Pasqualino) has a Colonial Handgun as his sidearm.

Dr. Beka Kelly (Lili Bordán) has a Colonial Handgun as her sidearm.

Beretta Cx4 Storm

The standard long gun of the Colonial Marines is a modified Beretta Cx4 Storm, that was also used in Battlestar Galactica as the standard long gun of the Colonial Marines. William "Husker" Adama (Luke Pasqualino) and Coker Fasjovik (Ben Cotton) also carry Beretta CX4 Storms. The weapons themselves have various attachments including a rail system with red dot sight, flashlight attachments, and a custom flash hider.

Feather AT-9 Pistol

Coker and Husker take Cylon Pistols to infiltrate a radio station. (Based on photographic evidence only) A pistol version of the Feather AT-9 Carbine was apparently used as the basis for the Cylon Pistol. The pistol grip was replaced with a FN FAL grip and an additional 'notch' was cut into the receiver tube to hold the bolt, since it had been converted into an open bolt select fire weapon (The original AT-9 was a closed bolt semi auto only firearm). These pistols were first seen in the television film Battlestar Galactica: Razor.
