Just for completion's sake with {{Infobox Object}}'s {{{first}}} variable, does anyone know the earliest appearance of firearms? I assume that the term as described on that page doesn't include Dalek gunstalks or ray guns. -- Tybort (talk page) 12:09, March 30, 2012 (UTC)
- Going just by memory, I believe the bad guys in Millenius in The Keys of Marinus threaten Susan with some kind of gun. Shambala108 talk to me 15:14, March 30, 2012 (UTC)
- Depends what you mean by "firearm". If you mean the word literally, then it's The Reign of Terror. If you mean anything that has a gun shape and is a range weapon" then it's The Daleks, since obviously Daleks have guns.
