The "Flash" 4 heavy blaster pistol was manufactured by Merr-Sonn Munitions, Inc.
Description[]
Merr-Sonn Munitions, Inc.'s "Flash" 4 heavy blaster pistol was an almost direct identical copy of BlasTech Industries' DL-44.[4] They both weighed 1.6 kilograms,[4] had a maximum effective range of 40 meters,[5] and a power pack contained enough shots for 50 blasts. The "Flash" 4 was fitted with a cautionary pulser grip that vibrated in the user's hand when the power pack only had five shots remaining.[4] "Flash" 4s cost between 695[1] and 750 credits,[2] with replacement power packs costing 25 credits.[4]
History[]
During the Galactic Civil War, Alliance to Restore the Republic soldiers preferred to carry heavy blaster pistols such as the "Flash" 4.[1] In 13 ABY,[6] Han Solo gave his wife, Leia Organa Solo, a "Flash" 4 with a custom grip and lanyard ring.[7]
