The most impressive looking one I've seen is this one:
The Wand Company | Star Trek: The Original Series Phaser replica universal remote control
I especially like that it is also a fully functional remote control!
You can bet your boots that this one will go for quite a few sawbucks.
What ever one you get, make sure it is one of the older models with no MIM parts and that darn Internal Lock!

Do you have a factory letter to prove its still in factory configuration?
Starfleet allowed non factory grips at one time...
Have the original box and documents?

I want one that comes with an autographed picture of T'Pol in the earlier series uniform. She wore that in one episode of, "Enterprise." A pale blue one...
Those phasers don't look like they'd balance well. Top heavy and not enough weight out front.
I'll check with my son. He's into that fantasy stuff to some degree and used to date a girl who majored in Theater. They used to dress up and attend Star Wars events. Not sure about Star Trek. I guess they make pistols like Han Solo's refurbished Mauser C-96. I thought the 'scope on that was an affectation that probably limited quick use at normal pistol ranges, although it might have been handy on long range targets.
I'm trying to recall what the handguns on the original, "Battlestar Galactica" looked like. I remember one character mentioning that they were ceramic and wouldn't set off airport detectors.

You mean like this uniform here?
...from this episode here?
Yes, T'Pol. She always made me go "Hmmmmmmmmmmm."

Cal-Mex-
YES! That very uniform, in that very episode.
Being Canadian, you pronounce things differently. She made you go, Hmmmm. She made me say, Mmmmmm. And Yummmm...
I wasn't even bothered by her pointed Vulcan ears. This is one place where I'm prepared to accept diversity.
I need to check Jolene Blalock's bio. Has she gotten any roles since then?

I don't have any phasers, Tribbles or anything like that but I do have the complete DVD sets of TOS, Voyager and Enterprise. My favorite piece of Star Trek memorabilia though is just a little slip of paper. But on it is written:
To Calvin,
Live long and prosper.

The main thing to remember is that if you're about to beam down to another planet, regardless of what weapons you've been issued DON'T wear a red shirt.

Don't forget the original Laser. #1 (later to be Nurse Chapel) put it on overload. It was gonna blow up and kill all of them. I don't believe the Phasers had that capability.

Phasers could be put on overload. There were a couple of episodes where they used the "phaser on overload" dramatic device to scare the wits out of us. I don't remember the specific episodes at this time, but please don't take away my "original Star Fleet Breast-symbol collection" over it.
When we were kids, some of us wanted a phaser (to disintegrate our enemies or schoolyard bullies no matter what they may claim today), or a tri-corder, or a transporter, or a communicator. It seems to me that the kids who wanted and dreamed of a communicator sold themselves short on future technology because now for all intents and purposes everybody has one. With more functions than Kirk's ever had, I might add.
Those who wanted a tri-corder would have to admit that the technology for one of those is looming on the horizon also. Again, they sold themselves short.
I suppose if I had a working phaser I might be tempted to use it on some of the local taxis but I could probably get over that. Besides, the machine that Kirk had in his quarters for making people just "disappear" in the episode "Mirror, Mirror" would work just as well without ever having to leave home.
Those who picked "transporter" as the Star Trek device to have did not sell themselves short. If I had one of those right now, I'd get my kicks transporting World Leaders (and some just-hopefuls) into Vladimir Putin's inner office without warning and without qualm just to hear about the outcomes on the Late Night News. Any reports from Starlets that they were transported into my inner-office and then later being accused of "stalking" me would of course be totally invented by the Starlets involved. I'm above that.
