Stargate Zat Gun

Production-made foam rubber stunt weapon painted gun metal gray with turquoise tint and purple detail. Shows small crack in bottom of prop and general production wear. Measures 8.5in × 2in × 6in.

Provenance

Taken by Propworx staff directly from The Bridge Studios, where MGM’s Stargate series were produced.

Stunt Zat gun used by both Jaffa and humans in the production of Stargate SG-1. As a stunt weapon, this Zat gun is a foam rubber version of the standard Zat gun, but is indistinguishable to the naked eye. Zat’ni’katels were introduced in the SG-1 Season One finale, “Within the Serpent’s Grasp,” as a less-powerful alternative to the much larger staff weapon. The name, and the 3-shots-desintegrate nature of the Zat gun became the butt of numerous in-jokes, namely in the 100th episode “Wormhole X-Treme!”
