Always kind of wondered why while the SGC's main mandate was to gather alien technologies, they didn't collect staff weapons laying around. Sure the SGC had a small collection of Zats and staff weapons, but for example why didn't they bring a few to Atlantis just in case they ran out of bullets for the P90s. Could you imagine three Zat hits on a wraith and he disappears, problem solved.
In a few episodes SG teams would come across whole battlefields of dead Jaffa littered with armaments. We've seen the naquada bulb alone power the Stargate to the Asgard galaxy. The SGC should have sent out people to at least scavange those from the discarded weapons.
Carter was able to use a crystal from the Ori staff weapons to take the place of three naquada generators and power Auther's Mantle. Could you imagine what a few of those crystals would do for a ships weapons systems? Granted less of those laying around, but they could do some cool stuff for sure.
