[QUOTE]Originally posted by David Templar: [QB] The general idea of this question, "can Borg protect itself from kinetic-based weapons, ie. guns", has been debated for ages since ST:FC. I think one of the most common responses is that, yes, the Borg can defend themself from things like bullets and other high-speed projectiles; ST:FC involved holographic forcefield pretending to be bullets, and an edged weapon is fundamentally different from guns, being much slower. Finally, the TR-116 never entered service. It was part of a Starfleet effort to development weapons that would operate in situations adverse to standard energy weapons. Regenerative phasers beat out the TR-116 (whatever the hell that is, writers seem to think slapping "regenerative" in front of a system makes it ultra strong, like "regenerative shields").
