Catalogue text

Light-up experimental weapon with included remotes. Developed by Dr. Bill Lee and Colonel Samantha Carter, this weapon was introduced in the SG-1 Season Ten episode “Bounty” and used again in “Continuum”. Carter and Lee demonstrated the weapon at an Applied Technologies convention where the device was supposed to short-circuit, but Sam was forced to use it to defend herself. Vala later wields the rifle in the opening of “Continuum”. Prop includes two remotes with a variety of settings, including a “short circuit” command to make the lights flicker before dying. Rifle is made of rigid foam with a metal housing for the barrel, and removable plastic panels revealing a set of control crystals. Measures 47.5in × 12.75in × 5in.
