The following weapons were used in Season 4 of the television series The Expanse:



Handguns

Springfield Armory XD(M)

The 1st Gen "Martian Pistol", heavily modified version of the WE X Series IPSC Airsoft Pistol, itself based on the Springfield Armory XD continues to be used by James Holden (Steven Strait), Amos Burton (Wes Chatham) and Alex Kamal (Cas Anvar) after they acquired them in Season 1.

Note: In the context of the show, the weapons are stated to be "designed to fire both self-propelled rounds and traditional cartridge rounds, the rear of the barrel is vented at the back to eliminate recoil for use in zero-g situations".

Amos Burton (Wes Chatham) uses the pistol in "New Terra" (S4E01).

Glock 26 Advanced

The "Star Helix Pistol", which is actually a visually modified Glock 26 Advanced Airsoft pistol (a fictional variant of the Glock 26 with an accessory rail, grip extension and compensated extended barrel originally manufactured by Tokyo Marui) continues to serve as the sidearm of many individuals in the series. This includes Adolphus Murty (Burn Gorman), Chandra Wei (Jess Salgueiro) and their Royal Charter Energy (RCE) security team, members of the OPA Navy such as Cammina Drummer (Cara Gee) and Klaes Ashford (David Strathairn) and officers of the United Nations Navy.

Note: In the context of the show, they are described as a "common gun made from plastic polymers so it can be 3D printed cheaply and reliably. It is designed for reliability and ease of use".

Rifles

Heckler & Koch SL8-4

The "Star Helix Long Gun", which is actually an Airsoft Umarex SL9 resembling a Heckler & Koch SL8-4 with a G36K length barrel, handguard, and various futuristic modifications is seen carried by multiple factions in the season. Royal Charter Energy (RCE) security officers under the command of Adolphus Murty (Burn Gorman) carry United Nations variants, which are tan in colour.

Heckler & Koch SL8-4 - 5.56x45mm. This variant is not imported into the US due to its double stack magazine well, which allows it to use flush fitting 10 round magazines.
