1917-1960

the word "ray gun" was first used by Victor Rousseau in 1917, in a passage from The Messiah of the Cylinder

Ray guns were so common on magazine covers during the Golden Age of Science Fiction that Campbell's Astounding was unusual for not depicting them.[6] The term "ray gun" had already become cliché by the 1940s,[7] in part due to association with the comic strips (and later film serials) Buck Rogers and Flash Gordon.

Replaced by laser guns of the 1960's to present.
