Serrakin rifle

The Serrakin rifle was a type of hand held energy weapon used by the Serrakin and Hebridan people.

Function
They were large, spear-like which were held as a rifle and fired the same greenish energy blasts as the pistol which had the capacity of killing or wounding a target. They required the use of both hands for aiming and had a handle at the lower part of the front of the weapon which was used to steady the shot of its user.

History
The Hebridan prisoners onboard the Sebrus managed to wrestle control of these weapons from their guards after they were let loose from transport stasis and used them extensively in their attempt at eliminating the remaining guards on the planet.

Behind the scenes

 * The prop for the rifle was the same type used by the Bedrosians in Stargate SG-1 "New Ground," and reused later as the Wraith spear gun in Stargate: Atlantis.
