Star Trek: The Next Generation (1987 - 1994)

Star Trek: The Next Generation was the television series sequel to the original Star Trek. The sequel series featured the crew of a new starship Enterprise in the 24th century. Most of the firearms seen in the series were used in holographic simulations on the 'Holodeck' or when the characters were involved in time travel.

The following weapons were used in the television series Star Trek: The Next Generation:

Pistols

Colt Single Action Army

In the episode "Time's Arrow, Part I" (S05E24) an archaeologist shows Captain Picard and Commander Data a 19th-century revolver in a cave beneath San Francisco. Data describes the weapon as a ".45-caliber double action Cavalry pistol, invented by Colt Firearms in 1873." In fact, the weapon is a Colt Single Action Army, and Colt firearms did not make a double-action pistol in 1873.

In the second part of that episode, "Time's Arrow, Part II" (S06E01), the weapon is held by Samuel Clemens (Jerry Hardin) when he confronts the Enterprise crew in the cave, revealing how it came to be there.

In the Season Six episode "A Fistful of Datas", the same pistol is used by several characters during a malfunctioning holodeck simulation of the Old West, including Lt. Worf (Michael Dorn), Counselor Troi (Marina Sirtis) and Commander Data (Brent Spiner).

Lt. Commander Data (Brent Spiner) as holographic villain Frank Hollander, fires his Single Action Army at Worf.

Worf quick-draws his SAA, managing to shoot Data/Frank's back-up gun out of his hand.

Colt 1903

In the Season One episode "The Big Goodbye" holographic henchman Felix Leech (Harvey Jason) carries a Colt Model 1903 hammerless automatic during one of Captain Picard's Dixon Hill simulations. Due to a computer malfunction, the holodeck's safeguards are deactivated and Leech shoots and critically wounds a crewman, on the orders of his holographic boss, Cyrus Redblock (Lawrence Tierney).

Rifles

Brown Bess Flintlock Musket

In the episode "Hide And Q", the ape-soldiers created by Q (John de Lancie) carry Brown Bess Flintlock Muskets that fire explosive energy bolts instead of bullets. The weapons are also fitted with bayonets, which are used on the protagonists when the soldiers overwhelm them.

Submachine Guns

M1928 Thompson

In the episode "Manhunt", Jean-Luc Picard (Patrick Stewart) is playing one of his Dixon Hill mystery simulations when a simulated gangster (Robert Costanzo) bursts into his office brandishing a M1928 Thompson, the startled Picard ducks and yells for the computer to freeze the simulation before the gunman can open fire, even though he wouldn't have been harmed due to the holodeck's safeguards.
