Galactica weapons
Posted by ikar01 on Tuesday, June 2, 2009 10:57 PM
In Star Wars, Han's pistol was made from a Broomhandle Mauser.  What did they use on the new Battlestar Galactica for rifles and pistols?  They look familar but I can't quite place them.

 Short version if you don't want to sift through the link, Pilot pistols were (from 2nd season on) modified FN Five-seveN pistols with an underbarrel prop launcher for explosive rounds. Other service pistols (like the one Boomer used) were Vector CP1 9mm. Colonial Marines eventually were settled on using Beretta CX4 9mm carbines, with a single prominent appearance of white-stocked Enfield L85's for the honor guard. A 4 shot pepperbox COP357 showed up once or twice too.
