Power 5 blaster

The Power 5 blaster was a model of blaster pistol manufactured by Merr-Sonn Munitions, Inc. and used by the Imperial Military, such as with the hangar gantry officer Lieutenant Pol Treidum on the first Death Star in 1 BBY. It was created to compete with BlasTech Industries's DL-44 heavy blaster pistol. It succeeded on the market and became known as a legal, low-power alternative to the DL-44. In 5 BBY, Dedra Meero of the Imperial Security Bureau used a Power 5 blaster during the Uprising on Ferrix. She later wielded a Power 5 when she attempted to apprehend Luthen Rael in 1 BBY. Earlier in 4 BBY, the Imperial Army trooper Corporal Pyke used a Power 5 blaster on Mina-Rau.
