What Was The Illegal Blaster Rifle That Fired Invisible Blaster Bolts? #shorts
What was the illegal blaster rifle that fired invisible blaster bolts?
One of the main drawbacks of a blaster was how obvious they were to detect. Blaster bolts brightness made covert operations very difficult, even for the most skilled bounty hunters and military personnel. The Empire wished to conduct secretive assassinations, and therefore developed the nightstinger rifle. It could only fire 3-5 shots before the blaster gas canister needed replacing, with each canister costing around 1000 credits. However, the blaster bolts were completely invisible, allowing for stealthy assassinations. This was particularly useful when used in conjunction with a redirection crystal. When the invisible bolt was fired at the crystal it would redirect the bolt while also adding colouration, allowing the empire to frame unsuspecting citizens for their brutal exterminations.

I’d actually never heard of this
Than you haven’t read the Thrawn duologie. I can really recommend them, but you should read the Thrawn Trilogy before. Some of the best Star Wars books out there and what the sequals should have been.
@Mantikor the canon thrawn trilogy then the non canon one or the ascendancy books
@Everything Dibs I was talking about the original Thrawn Trilogie (Heir to the Empire…) and the continuation of them, but the new Canon Trilogie is also good, especially the first part, but in my opinion the old one is better.
Ascendancy 1&2 were good also, but by far less interesting to me
@Mantikor I have the books just haven’t gotten to reading them heard there really good
I’ve learned more about star wars from your shorts randomly showing up in my feed than I have in my whole life
i rather learn about star wars legends than going to school
@Inso Maniac but school is good
@Clone Solar nerd
@Piro why am I nerd? I like school, it has always been fun to me. Well, at least I liked it. I had to move to Iraq and now my life sucks, the power always turns off and the people here ain’t nice. The internet ain’t good and im suicidal and I have depression, so please be grateful. Cause all of that can be taken away from you in two seconds.
@Clone Solar For one, I was joking. Two, damn. Assuming you’re not a mf lier, I hope things improve on your part.
at this point they could just use a normal sniper with normal bullets…but no bcs star wars lol
Imagine, soneone in the starwars universe re-inventing ballistic non lazer guns
Some bounty hunters actually used regular bullets because “get f*cked space wizard, try and deflect my lead” they were all called slug throwers, whether it was a rifle or pistol or whatever. Cool stuff.
@UCPGYIUBSyozBuyUIzABynEw the idea is you can’t deflect like them like plasma bolts, and instead get molten shrapnel into your face.
@Kingsizedmidget they could however be redirected with the force much easier than blaster bolts.
Lol at the Mass Effect weapon
I was gonna say. Don’t think we didn’t notice
Lol same
I came down here looking for this comment
If I were a bounty hunter in the star wars universe I’d just use ballistics instead of blasters tbh
Guys and remember that the standard armors in starwars are made for assorbing energy plasma heat and not impacts
So basically a normal rifle can kill easily a stormtrooper ecc, and tbh jedi’s cannot deflect a bullet because has faster velocity x10 times
Not even energy shields can deflects bullets i think
I mean the lasers in starwars travels at 130 miles per hour against 1700 miles per hour of an average bullet
Leaves too much physical evidence behind for my taste ✨🖤✨
I didn’t know star wars lacked combustion weapons.
It does have combustion based ballistic weapons. They are called slugthrowers and aren’t as common as blasters. They were seen as primitive and barbaric. That’s why you’d see primitive cultures like the Tusken Raiders use them.
@Tahj Hérard slug thrower ammo moves a heck of a lot faster than a blaster bolt though. “Dodge this ya damn space catholic!” *fires shotgun*
They don’t. They’re referred to as “slug throwers” in universe
I wonder how hard Empire R&D would facepalm when they hear about guns and suppressors
But supressors/silencers doesn’t just make Your gun as silent as breathing, sure the welrod and that British depressed sniper lowered the sound and the Germans and Italians didn’t know what it was still didn’t conceal your position
Unless there’s a magical attachment that not only turned your bullets into breaths as well as kept the accuracy and range just without the attachment then ok sure but this is star wars. Not COD MW69
@Naughty Novaroo a gun with a flash suppressor that can cib and a sub sonic will do far better than what star wars has the only bullet that shows their trace are tracers and they are meant to do so

i mean it’d hurt
Maybe Han actually missed but Greedo was just wanted by the Empire and another bounty hunter just had really good timing
