A water pistol was an Earth made toy. They were often designed in the shape of human firearms, and were usually made of plastic. Each water pistol required water in the barrel, which was later squirted out by pulling a trigger. However, the range of which the water was squirted out was limited.
The Doctor found a water pistol in his pockets while looking for his sonic screwdriver. (DWAM: The Germ War)
Later, while visiting Pompeii on 24th August 79 AD, the Doctor used a water pistol to hold a Pyrovile at "gunpoint" to gather information from it.

However, squirting the toy at a Pyrovile-controlled High Priestess still caused it to feel pain, since water was the Pyrovile's weakness. He later used it again on an adult Pyrovile inside Vesuvius, causing a similar effect. (DW: The Fires of Pompeii)
The Doctor later used a water pistol to find the rear entrance to the Temple of Kol-Ne-Wah. (IDW: Final Sacrifice)
