I have no idea what this bullpup rifle is based on, if anything. It seems odd to me that they would build a prop from scratch and make it so.. conventional.. so following logic it is probably a dressed-up bullpup rifle of some sort. But which? It reminds me most of a Tavor, but if it is one, it is quite heavily dressed up. --[[User:Joffeloff|Joffeloff]] ([[User talk:Joffeloff|talk]]) 09:26, 20 December 2015 (EST)

:Considering that The Expanse series (the books atleast) are ''fairly'' realistic, i wouldn't say it's so strange that they made the weapon look rather conventional (although there's doesn't appear to be any type of sight on it, unless that orange thing is the sight) Anyhow, parts of it kinds reminds me an SA80--[[User:AnActualAK47|AnActualAK47]] ([[User talk:AnActualAK47|talk]]) 10:15, 20 December 2015 (EST)

:Even if they are one-offs they should be included on the main page, as they still appeared in the show. As for what they are, the bottom revolver is a Colt Python, the pistol in the middle is an Umarex blank fire replcia of a Walther P88C, not sure about the top revolver though. As for the longs, one on the left is a double barrelled coach gun, other two are lever actions. My guess would be Winchester Model 1873 saddle ring carbines. --[[User:Commando552|commando552]] ([[User talk:Commando552|talk]]) 11:41, 20 December 2015 (EST)

While this is from the second book, i might as well ask here. In that book, in the very beginning when Bob and her crew gets owned by that protowhatever thing, she says something about firing her AR with rounds going something around 1000 m/s. I always thought that was kinda strange since there's nothing special about that velocity, especially since they're on one of Mars moons where there's no air and the gravity pull isn't as strong. Shouldn't those rounds go faster?--[[User:AnActualAK47|AnActualAK47]] ([[User talk:AnActualAK47|talk]]) 10:12, 20 December 2015 (EST)

== Miller's Revolver ==
Here's some shots of Detective Miller's sidearm that he loots after the hotel lobby scene. I think a Rhino? Some more sure than I feel free to add to the article.

Holden and crew seem to use similar sidearms, maybe ones they raided from the Rocinante (formerly MCRN Tachi) armory?

==Antagonists' weapons==
Does anyone have a shot of the weapons that are used by the mystery antagonists? They have at least two weapons, one is a grenade launcher which looks like some kind of standalone launcher ( bit like a B&T but it isn't one) with an additional FN EGLM mounted upside down on top of it, whilst the other is seen only very briefly when they board the MCRN capital ship, but it looks like some kind of mocked up energy weapon or taser type thing. --[[User:Commando552|commando552]] ([[User talk:Commando552|talk]]) 06:03, 22 February 2016 (EST)

I'm pretty sure it's an SL8 going by the thumbhole stock, but that could be a future-ish addition to a regular G36. --Joffeloff (talk) 09:26, 20 December 2015 (EST)
Based on the double stack magazine well (Canadian filmed?) and short rail, I would call these SL8-4s. --commando552 (talk) 11:27, 20 December 2015 (EST)
