Reverberating Carbonizer - Men In Black
The Reverberating Carbonizer with mutate capacity made a brief but memorable appearance at the beginning of Men in Black when a cornered Cephalopoid pulls it out on Jay. Its quickly knocked out of his hands and shatters after falling to the ground, but the Carbonizer's bizarre shape and flame effects make it science fiction weapon design of intrigue. It leaves us wondering just how dangerous it really is, and what it looks like when it fires.

M240 Flamethrower from Aliens
The M240 flamethrower is featured in the second Alien film when Ripley duct-tapes it to her Pulse Rifle and descends into the depths of the Queen's lair to rescue Newt. The M240 defines our imagination of what a flamethrower depiction ought to be. Devastatingly effective against Xenomorphs, the M240 fires an incendiary gel up to 30 meters, covering its target in sticky napalm.

The Big Baby from Hellboy 2 is a monstrously over-sized combination shotgun and six-shooter. In Hellboy's demon-infested world perhaps this 42 pound, flare-firing contraption has it use.

Television gun - Unknown
In some unknown movie, there was a gun able to shoot people through the television.
If, for instance, you did not like the weatherforecast, you could just shoot the presenter.
Sadly I cannot remember the actual movie, but it's an old one.
