They didn't in the later seasons, if I recall correctly there was an issue to do with firearms and either the Afghan War or Gulf War II that meant there was ammunition shortages as factories made more ammo for the military and less blanks or something, they had to create one off weapons for the heroes, had shotgun episodes, or airsoft mp5's that fired red stun lasers episodes, so that they weren't pulling from the same limited ammo supply pools.
It'd be kind of cool to see what the Tok'ra/Jaffa/Earth alliance would have progressed into at this point in time. Still feels weird its been 15 years since this show ended.
I’d guess that Earth and the Tok’ra are fine with each other but the Jaffa will almost certainly be divided into a ton of different factions some of which are going to be hostile and some that won’t be.
@@jeffers9001 I figure that'd wrap itself up eventually, after the Ori are out of the picture. Something that did annoy me about Universe was the SGC very uncharacteristically damaging relations with the Langarans though, so I guess if we consider that show canon, who knows.

100 soldiers and jaffa well armed ready to attack but when the enemy becomes visible their all just standing there and watch untill Bratak appears and kills him...
I suddenly remember Tony Amendolas interview about this episode. he expected and Feared his character Master Bratac would die this episode. he asked his wife to read the script first
Yeah, guest performers on TV shows (even recurring ones who appear nearly every season) never know if they will ever appear again. So he had good reason to worry that his character was going to be killed off.
I wonder why obtaining the Korean equivalent machine gun was easier; this show *was* funded (at least in part, if not in full) by the United States government.
@@Ragitsu During seasons 6 and 7, they had trouble acquiring certain weapons because of the Iraq War as well as blank ammunition for them. It's one of the reasons the Zats became more prominent as sidearms for the team and Carter using a fictional rifle nicknamed the 'Carter Special' instead of a P-90 during season 7. At the onset of the Iraq War, most of the M249s in service were old (as much as twenty years) with reports of soldiers fixing them with duct tape. When they needed all the ones that worked they could get, donating ones for use as TV props wouldn't have been a high priority.
Evidently weapon safety training was an extra curricular class in the early 2000s. These dudes are just spraying right above of where their allies fell.
This series made me love the P90. I don't know if it is any good (I'm not American so I couldn't really test it ; D), but I absolutely love this weapon.
While I couldn't say that I have heard anything bad about the P90, it always was a source of confusion for me that throughout most of the series the SG teams were armed with only submachine guns, P90's or MP5's, you rarely ever saw any full size rifles.
It was a middle-of-the-pack weapon in Counter Strike. Not often used, but it did have an advantage of having 50 rounds per clip. That's only other place I've seen it outside of this show.
@@Trainer319 The FN P90 was originally designed in the late 80s as a Personal Defense Weapon (PDW) for rear echelon troops (think cooks, truck drivers, clerks, logistics people) and tank crews as a counter to potential Soviet Spetznaz teams that wore armor (that would be dropped behind our lines) that the conventional 9mm pistols they were normally armed with wouldn't be sufficient against. The P90 was designed to be light weight and offer armor penetration with the FN 5.7x28mm. Remember: it's velocity that penetrates armor, so you don't need a big bullet. A competitor to the P90 is the Heckler and Koch MP-7. The problem with both firearms is that the Cold War ended, thus also the need for a PDW, before they could be adopted. However, both firearms would see a second life in the hands of special forces, like we see in Stargate.
The Belgian buzzsaw is a very good weapon by all accounts I've heard. It didnt end up being that effective against the titanium armor it was designed to defeat, but anything short of the very best personal armor it handles it well. It's a damn fine gun.
Jack O'Neill.. that's TWO LLs by the way.. being a complete BADASS and mowing the lawn! As we say in the military.. lol.. thank you for posting this most epic of scenes!!!
What I love about the series was sure, the Jaffa Staff was nice and advanced, and could deal some damage, but sometimes, a crude but highly effective Tau'ri weapon would just dominate the battle field. In a lot of way, I reckon the Tau'ri are more of a warrior race than the Jaffa.
“This *the Staff* is a weapon of terror, it is designed to intimidate the enemy. This *the P90* is a weapon of war, it is designed to kill your enemy.”
@@Ragitsu and it’s a common trope in fiction, especially settings with other races, that we’re (for better or worse) particularly ingenious at finding ways to kill.
Wish we saw more of the Ashrak along with another form of larger breed of special forces. This would make the Goa'uld success in maintaining their empire much more believable, especially when they were fighting advance enemies.
And not one single person thought to look DOWN, or throw dust UP. Cloaking devices do not hide footprints, and dust suddenly changing direction in mid air means it has hit something invisible.
It does annoy me how the dust trick is always the last thing they think of. A Castle episode had a stealth suit and he realised he could use a fire extinguisher to reveal them and my thought was honestly 'well duh'. Hell, if I knew someone invisible was around, I'd be carrying a can of spray paint.
I'm glad they started depicting SG-1 with proper weapons in the later seasons instead of them getting into long range firefights with freaking MP5s. It wasn't designed for that
Jacks mission report would have been a hard read for an NID inspector. More so than usual, I mean the dude was firing multiple weapons full auto from the hip with 20+ people around him lol
You just had to stop before the "This single blade has done what no one has done before" speech. Or was it, "This single blade has achieved what many have failed to do." It has been a while since I've seen this episode, so forgive me if I mess up the quote.
Also the costume design of the Ashrak was weird. When he was visible at the end there adter being hit by bratacs staff shots and im assuming at lesst a few hits from the hesvy machine gun, he had that goofy helmet and armor that seemed to short out like it was running on electricity.
"armor that seemed to short out like it was running on electricity." I interpreted that short-circuiting to be the Ashrak's invisibility cloak/field generator being critically damaged by the staff weapon's blasts.
@@Ragitsu Yeah, just like how the personal force field worn by the Goa'ulds is tiny and embedded inside the hand device, I imagine this type of cloaking device is embedded in the armor of the Ashrak.
@@Ragitsu doesn't matter against something that a knife won't penetrate, that's why pulling it out is a last act of defiance, like the Indian with the Predator on the bridge

The guarding the gate as if its important. Bur the gate ia useless without thr DHD. All they had to do was remove the control crystal and force the ashrak to you.
All the Tok'ra were descended from Egeria, and we learn her fate in the episode "Cure". Seems a little odd that there was no queen descended from Egeria, though.
I thought this was experimental, and since SG1 showed such an advanced counter so quickly, it would be seen as a failed tactic and technology. No militant leader would see fit to spend more resources on it. (This was why they couldn't let him get to the gate, so he conch go home and report his limited success, and his commander would be left to assume total failure.)
This scene has always bothered me. All issues of incredibly unsafe firearms handling by O'Neill... He was holding an obviously STILL LOADED M240 Bravo.. WHY did he PUT IT DOWN in favor of a KNIFE??? I mean, I get that the idea was for Bratak to save the day. But they could at least have had made the model appear UNLOADED and have him "click-click" on the trigger and THEN toss it aside. Ugh. sloppy, sloppy, sloppy.
Except that it's a Korean Daewoo K3 LMG and not an American firearm, LOL. (hint: it was available to the production because that's what the Canadian gun rental companies had in stock)
@@Frankie2012channel lol,filming shenanigans(like a "panzer" in a 1960s flick). Still,I would take 5.56/.223 over 5.7 in most of the situations in the show.
This is Colonel Jack "Two L's" O'Niell we're talking about. A man who, when faced with imminent death in a replicator infestation, decided to spend his last few seconds alive grabbing for a block-replicator with the intent to smash it on the floor. Show of defiance is his MO.
The firearms crew must have had a blast on this show.
