Weapons in stargate: Part I
Common Tau'ri name: Zat, Zat GunFull name, with alternate spellings: Zatn'kitel, Zat'nik'tel, Zat'n'ktel, Zat'nik'katel
The Zat is a one-handed weapon, presumably of Goa'uld origin, used primarily by their Jaffa. It is capable of incapacitating, killing, or disintegrating most living beings, depending on how often and how quickly the Zat is fired at them. It is also able to alter, disable, or disintegrate non-living material, including active technology. The SGC has captured numerous Zats, and SGC teams sometimes use them within the SGC and on missions.
Common Tau'ri name: Staff, Staff WeaponThe Staff Weapon is a two-handed weapon, presumably of Goa'uld origin, used extensively by the Jaffa. The weapon fires an energy plasma blast that is very destructive. The blast causes severe burns to the skin and is deadly if it hits a vital part of the body, such as the chest, by shocking the organs within. It tends not to cause a great deal of external bleeding, as the wound is quickly cauterized by the heat of the blast. However, there may be bleeding beneath the surface burn. The Staff Weapon is also effective against structures. It is used to blast holes in walls, blast locks apart, and is even at times effective against spacecraft, provided a shot can be landed. The energy wave appears to dissipate with distance. Beyond 60-70 yards, it cannot be aimed with perfect accuracy. The Staff Weapon has a trigger switch on top of the rear section that is pushed once to arm the weapon; arming is indicated by the four-piece, clamshell-like tip opening slightly and the emission of a small energy discharge. When the trigger is pressed again, the weapon fires. The Staff Weapon can be fired repeatedly after a short recharge time. It is powered by a small vial of liquid naquadah. The Staff Weapon is less accurate than such Earth weapons as the P-90, and more unwieldy to carry, but it does not run out of ammunition, as the naquadah lasts many years. Although the SGC has captured many Staff Weapons, SGC personnel do not use them, with the exception of Teal'c. He used the Staff Weapon extensively in his early years with the Tau'ri, but now seems equally comfortable with Earth machine guns.
Common name: P-90 (US army real weapon click here)
The P-90 is a an submachine gun used by SGC personnel, manufactured by Fabrique Nationale of Belgium. It is designed to put the power of an assault rifle in a pistol sized weapon, suitable for close quarters encounters. It is a fully ambidextrous weapon, in a bullpup configuration, which means the action and magazine are behind the trigger. This gives a longer barrel for the weapon without substantially increasing the weapon size. It is a favored weapon of the SGC, carried commonly by the SG teams in the field, and is also used by the Atlantis team in the Pegasus Galaxy. It was first seen in 4.08 "The First Ones", when O'Neill requested them for the mission to rescue Daniel Jackson. Up to that point, the MP5 was usually used by Stargate teams. No specific reason for the switch from the MP5 to the P-90 was ever given, but it can be assumed O'Neill requested them because he felt they would be more effective.
