They probably have better stuff than that. DS9 shows that they do have more advanced projectile weapons.

Even if gunpowder is impossible for normal replicatetors, I would suggest more ancient weapons. A sword or an ax would do nicely against the Borg.

Worf gives us proof of that.

Combat shotguns are the way to go. That, and claymore mines, and the Borg would never have made it out of engineering.

True, but assuming the gunpowder and explosives cannot be replicated a small group of Vikings (about 50 I think) can do the same.

Please, if they can replicate organic compounds, then a decently trained person could whip up some Improvised Explosive Devices.
