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) serves as the sidearm of many individuals and law enforcement agencies in the series. This includes: Star Helix Security, Tycho Station Security and CPM Security Corporation. Detective Joe Miller (Thomas Jane) and his colleagues carry them, in addition to CPM Inspector Sematimba (Kevin Hanchard) and Amos Burton (Wes Chatham).
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".
The "Martian Pistol" serves as the standard sidearm of the Martian Congressional Republic Navy, and appears to be a heavily modified version of the WE X Series IPSC Airsoft Pistol, itself based on the Springfield Armory XD. The pistols are later acquired and used by James Holden (Steven Strait), Amos Burton (Wes Chatham) and Alex Kamal (Cas Anvar) throughout the series.
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".
