Phaser, as every single one is a different kind of awesome. The original series had a small removable module that our peace-loving heroes could hide in their belt for when negotiations took a turn for the awkward. It bolted into a sort of backwards handgun thing that established a look that was subtly different from anything else.\u00a0<\/p><p>When it came time to update it, The Next Generation turned it into a sort of \u2018dustbuster,\u2019 which completely set the new design apart from the original and helped to establish the identity of the show. Along the way they added the \u2018Assault Phaser\u2019 to \u2018The Undiscovered Country\u2019 made from a Beretta 93r, which was the best looking\u2014and least Star Trek\u2014of the lot.\u00a0<\/p><p>Fun fact! Commander Scott (\u2018Scotty\u2019) was the only Star Trek officer in any series that understood basic trigger discipline.
