The following weapons were used in Season 3 of the television series The Expanse:
Handguns
Springfield Armory XD(M)
The 1st Gen "Martian Pistol", heavily modified version of the WE X Series IPSC Airsoft Pistol, itself based on the Springfield Armory XD continues to be used by James Holden (Steven Strait), Amos Burton (Wes Chatham) and Alex Kamal (Cas Anvar) after they acquired them in Season 1.
Note: In the context of the show, the weapons are stated to be "designed to fire both self-propelled rounds and traditional cartridge rounds, the rear of the barrel is vented at the back to eliminate recoil for use in zero-g situations".
Glock 26 Advanced
The "Star Helix Pistol", which is actually a visually modified Glock 26 Advanced Airsoft pistol (a fictional variant of the Glock 26 with an accessory rail, grip extension and compensated extended barrel originally manufactured by Tokyo Marui) continues to serve as the sidearm of many individuals in the series. It is carried by United Nations Navy personnel, including Fleet Admiral Augusto Nguyen (Byron Mann), Belters such as Camina Drummer (Cara Gee), as well as briefly by UN Deputy Undersecretary Chrisjen Avasarala (Shohreh Aghdashloo).
Note: In the context of the show, they are described as a "common gun made from plastic polymers so it can be 3D printed cheaply and reliably. It is designed for reliability and ease of use".
Rifles
Heckler & Koch SL8-4
The "Star Helix Long Gun", which is actually an Airsoft Umarex SL9 resembling a Heckler & Koch SL8-4 with a G36K length barrel, handguard, and various futuristic modifications serves as the rifle of choice amongst many factions in the series.
APS UAR
The "Martian Long Gun", which is actually a slightly modified APS UAR Airsoft rifle, is carried Martian forces as well as the crew of the Rocinante throughout the season.
FN SCAR-L
A heavily modified SCAR again appears as the auto-shotgun carried by Amos Burton (Wes Chatham). A magwell cover prevents the type from being identified.
Machine Guns
GE M134 Minigun
The Rocinante is equipped with six "Point Defense Cannons" that resemble GE M134 Minigun's.
Note: in the context of the show, the PDC's are said to be manufactured by Nariman Dynamics and chambered in 40mm.
Other
Goliath Powered Armor Minigun
A built in minigun is a key feature of the Martian Marine Corps Goliath MkIII Powered Armor. The weapon is seen used by Gunnery Sergeant Bobbie Draper (Frankie Adams).
