Weapons known as stun blasters were a kind of blaster designed to stun their targets, rather than inflict lethal damage. Examples of stun blasters include the LBR-9 stun rifle, which was produced by BlasTech Industries, and the Deck Sweeper Stun Blaster, which was manufactured by Merr-Sonn Munitions, Inc.. Furthermore, the WSW Mk III "Harrier" Combat Remote from Cybot Galactica featured integrated stun blasters for use in training exercises with the remotes. It was possible to disassemble the weapon and create a stun blaster attachment for the hilt of a lightsaber, enabling the user to employ the weapon as a blaster while concealing its true nature.
