As seen in Star Trek:Voyager episodes, S5E01 Night (10/14/1998), S5E09 (12/09/1998), S5E12 Bride of Chaotica (01/27/1999)
This ‘ray gun’ design appeared in The Adventures of Captain Proton a program created by Lt. Tom Paris (Robt. Duncan McNeill) for entertainment in the USS Voyager’s holodeck mimicking a 1930s science fiction movie serial. This particular type model was the side arm of Buster Kinkaid played by Ensign Harry Kim (Garrett Wang). At one point when Voyager was boarded by hostile aliens, these ‘ray guns’ became actual effective weapons when the holodeck’s safety protocols were turned off. This particular prop was production made as a back-up prop but not ending up as a screen used.
Acquired from and verified by Michael W. Moore, prop maker for ST: Voyager (All seasons), restored by Lazarus Restorations.
