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

The lightning gun was a specialized energy weapon produced by Jer'N Weapons Systems. The only lethal energy weapon produced by the company, the lightning gun fired packets of charged sub-atomic particles. One packet was positively charged, while the other was negatively charged antiparticles. The two packets were kept apart by a "shepherd packet" which dissolved when they hit the target. When the two charged packets annihilate each other they generated a lethal blast.
