What are the rifles they’re using? Maybe taken from the 90s Eugenic Wars? I guess Kirk would have left them with it, since they’re basically obsolete and they do need something to help defend themselves.
That’s an interesting question. Kirk seemed pretty determined to let Khan and his people have a real chance on Ceti Alpha V, so it makes sense that he’d allow them some tools, and even weapons.
But this episode also makes a bit of a big deal out of Khan’s reaction to Starfleet technology that’s much more advanced that what he’s used to. Some kind of throwback/antique weapon would make sense.
