"M41 Mark 2 Plasma Pulse Rifle"

Two SS-1 Scud transporter erector launcher are shown in "Space Race (Part 1)" (S03E12).

The ISIS Armory

The ISIS armory has a large collection of weaponry on its walls, much of it accurately rendered, except for scale. The Sa. Vz.61 Skorpion for example, is ludicrously large.

This is the widest shot of the armory. From top right, excluding the pistols, which are too small in this shot, there are two MP5SD3s, a Bren gun, two AK-74s, a Lewis gun, and pistols that are covered below. From top left, there are two RPG-7s, a FIM-92A Stinger, a PIAT, an M60 machine gun, an MP40, a ridiculously over-sized Sa. Vz.61 Skorpion, an Uzi, Heckler & Koch P7M8 and a Walther MPL.

This is a closer shot of some of the pistols from "Movie Star." You can see a Beretta 92, a Luger P08, an out of scale AMC Auto Mag Pistol, and the grip of a H&K P7.

This shot from "El Secuestro" shows a bit more. To the extreme left, there appears to be some M16A2 rifles, or possibly some M16A1s with A2 handguards. You can also see Lana's TEC-9 under her shoulder and what looks like the front view of a Walther MPL

.

This shot from "Bloody Ferlin" shows another angle of the first shot.
