I can’t see where a terrestrial style firearm would even be convenient on a space ship or space station. Besides the issues of a projectile puncturing important stuff, you’d also have the smoke particles, lubricant mist and metal shavings now in your life support system... not to mention the fluids and debris from your enemy. I don’t see any kind of projectile being used in confined spaces. Probably will still use projectiles in conflicts involving crafts engaging each other.
My best guess would be weapons designed to disrupt electrical circuits.
