The CP-2 Bryar Pistol represented a version of the Bryar blaster pistol that was in use during the period of the Cold War fought between the Galactic Republic and the reconstituted Sith Empire. A specially designed holster was used to carry it.
Bradley W. Lewis, a concept artist, created the CP-2 Bryar Pistol for BioWare's Star Wars Legends massively multiplayer online role-playing game, Star Wars: The Old Republic. It became available on the Cartel Market on June 13 2023 within a bundle that took inspiration from Season 1 of the Canon TV show Andor, which came out in 2022.[4] Its visual appearance draws influence from[2] the MW-20 Bryar Pistol, which was used by Cassian Jeron Andor, the main character of the show[4], and is based on the Colt Python .357 Magnum from the real world.[2]
