Geonosian sonic blaster
Canon Legends version → Linked from 46 articles
The Geonosian sonic blaster was a rifle-like sonic blaster manufactured by Gordarl Weaponsmiths. It was the standard sidearm of Geonosians, like the Geonosian warriors. The blasters fired sonic waves of energy that could stun, or if on full power, shatter every bone in the blast radius, effectively eliminating the target. Geonosian sonic blasters were considered particularly effective against Jedi, as the powerful blasts could not be deflected by lightsabers.
By the time of the Cold War, the Geonosian sonic blaster was modified to fire blaster bolts and had a stock near the grip. These were wielded by several individuals like Narb, Nod, Grevel, and Lechee.
