I think there's nothing wrong with doing a small side note on the page as long as there aren't too many. Like STAR TREK, there are just too many fantasy weapons that they should not be listed unless they are based on real guns. After all RAMBO's knife and crossbows are listed in his movie pages, but I don't believe that non firearms merit their own pages in the FIREARMS category.

For example, I listed the CHIG battle rifle in Space Above and Beyond, because it was shown firing like a gun, but it was a pyrotechnic effect, not a real gun inside a sci fi outer shell. Also the Chig battle rifle doesn't merit it's own page on the guns page.

As for the 007 listing, I don't mind listing the Moonraker laser on the "moonraker" page but it does not merit a page on the GUN pages.
