[QUOTE]Originally posted by Timo: [QB] Like G2000 said, the two Borg had already poked a holo-character with their laser pointers, and found him less than human. So they *could* have guessed the gun was holographic in nature, too. Not that the Borg would have been any more familiar with a real submachine gun. It's not as if they had assimilated anybody with firsthand knowledge of such ancient and outdated things as tommy-guns and Dixon Hill stories. Oh, wait... :rolleyes: Anyhow, I doubt the nature of the weapon matters much. The Borg ALWAYS succumb to the first shots, even if the weapon used is a thoroughly familiar hand phaser. (Except when the drone is not expendable - Seven of Nine was immune to phasers from the very first shot!) Killing two drones is not a heroic feat or anything. Picard could probably have ordered a Klingon simulation, confiscated a disruptor, and killed the drones with that. Any weapon would do, as long as it was different from what the Borg were expecting.
