Hold-out blaster

Legends Canon version → Linked from 398 articles

Legends. This article is part of Legends: the expanded-universe stories that Lucasfilm set apart from canon in 2014.

Hold-out blasters (also holdout blaster or hold-out blaster pistol) were small, palm-sized blasters that could be easily concealed. Underpowered and short-ranged, hold-out blasters were the weapon of choice for undercover agents and criminals since they were illegal in many systems.
