Star Trek: The Next Generation was the television series sequel to the original Star Trek. The sequel series, which aired in syndication for 7 seasons from 1987 to 1994, starred Patrick Stewart as Captain Jean-Luc Picard, who led the crew of a new starship Enterprise in the 24th century. Most of the firearms seen in the series were used in simulations on the ship's 'Holodeck' or when the characters were involved in time travel.
The following weapons were used in the television series Star Trek: The Next Generation:
Pistols
Colt Single Action Army "Artillery"
In Season 5's finale "Time's Arrow, Part I" (S5E26), an archaeologist shows Captain Picard and Commander Data a 19th-century revolver in a cave beneath San Francisco. Data describes the weapon as a ".45-caliber double action Cavalry pistol, invented by Colt Firearms in 1873." The description appears to be in error as the revolver seen be is an "Artillery" model of the Colt Single Action Army, and Colt firearms did not make a double-action pistol in 1873. In the second part of that episode, Season 6's premiere "Time's Arrow, Part II" (S6E01), the weapon is held by Samuel Clemens (Jerry Hardin) when he confronts the Enterprise crew in the cave, revealing how it came to be there.
In Season 6's "A Fistful of Datas" (S6E08), Counselor Deanna Troi (Marina Sirtis), Commander Data (Brent Spiner), and holographic outlaw Eli Hollander (John Pyper-Ferguson) all carry the "Artillery" model of the Colt Single Action Army.
Colt Single Action Army "Cavalry"
In Season 6's "A Fistful of Datas" (S6E08), a "Cavalry" model of the Single Action Army is mainly used by Lt. Worf (Michael Dorn) during a holodeck simulation of the Old West.
Colt Detective Special
In Season 1's "The Big Goodbye" (S1E12), Cyrus's holographic henchman takes a Colt Detective Special revolver off a detective.
Walther PP
In Season 1's "The Big Goodbye" (S1E12), holographic henchman Felix Leech (Harvey Jason) pulls a stainless Walther PP with pearl grips during one of Captain Picard's Dixon Hill simulations. Due to a computer malfunction, the holodeck's safeguards are deactivated and Leech shoots and critically wounds a crewman, on the orders of his holographic boss, Cyrus Redblock (Lawrence Tierney).
M1911A1
In Season 1's "The Big Goodbye" (S1E12), one of Cyrus Redblock's henchmen can be seen armed with an M1911A1, holding it on the protagonists. After Cyrus is defeated, Data takes the weapon from him and uses his superhuman strength to pinch the muzzle shut, rendering the pistol useless.
Shotguns
Double Barreled Shotgun
In Season 6's "A Fistful of Datas" (S6E08), Commander Data (Brent Spiner), whose likeness has been grafted onto a holographic Mexican gunfighter, wields a 12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotgun.
Rifles
Brown Bess Flintlock Musket
In Season 2's "Hide And Q", the beast-soldiers created by Q (John de Lancie) carry Brown Bess Flintlock Muskets that fire explosive energy bolts instead of bullets. The weapons are also fitted with bayonets, which are used on the protagonists when the soldiers overwhelm them.
Winchester Model 1873
The Winchester Model 1873 is used by Deanna Troi (Marina Sirtis) in "A Fistful of Datas" (S6E08).
Submachine Guns
M1928 Thompson
In Season 2's "Manhunt", Jean-Luc Picard (Patrick Stewart) is playing one of his Dixon Hill mystery simulations when a simulated gangster (Robert Costanzo) bursts into his office brandishing a M1928 Thompson, the startled Picard ducks and yells for the computer to freeze the simulation before the gunman can open fire, even though he wouldn't have been harmed due to the holodeck's safeguards.
Other
"2079" Weapons
In the series premiere "Encounter at Farpoint" (S1E01), Picard and his crew find themselves in a "kangaroo court" in the year 2079, after the effects of a "post-atomic horror" on earth. Seen are soldiers armed with forearm-mounted weapons. These appear to be a props, but they do emit what appears to be a gas-powered muzzle flash.
