Hold - out blaster / Legends Hold - out blasters ( also holdout blaster or hold - out blaster pistol ) were small , palm - sized blasters that could be easily concealed . Description . There were two categories of hold - out blasters : civilian and military . Civilian hold - out blasters were in essence miniature blasters meant for self - defense . Many worlds had strict legislation about the possession and use of arms , and civilian hold - out blasters were designed to be tolerated by such restrictive regulation . Hence , they fired relatively underpowered bolts , had a poor effective range , and could fire only five or six shots before being depleted . This was seen as sufficient for scaring would - be attackers off , without delivering too much firepower in the hands of a random individual . However , due to their ease of concealment , hold - out blasters were associated with more nefarious characters , and they were still outlawed on some worlds . Military hold - out blasters , on the other hand , were designed to be weapons in their own right . They were still smaller than the heavy - duty sidearms , but the high - quality military hardware used in their fabrication meant they lacked neither range nor killing power . ISB agents and stormtrooper scouts were issued hold - out pistols as standard weapons , for ease of concealment , and because a heavier weapon would have been too bulky and ungainly to wield while riding a speeder bike . History . Hold - out blasters saw widespread use in weapon - restricted areas and were commonly found in the possession of undercover agents , gamblers and other scoundrel s , or nobles seeking to protect themselves . Hold - out blasters were sometimes carried by more lethal characters for backup firepower . Iella Wessiri Antilles , Mara Jade Skywalker , and Han Solo were among the many to use hold - out blasters . Hold - out blasters were hidden on each floor of the Imperial Palace , contained within a datacard box regarding the complete history of Corvis Minor . Although blasters were uncommon on the planet Lamaredd because energy replacements were scarce , hold - out blasters were the weapon of choice of two notorious inhabitants of the planet , Guther Bartyn and Miss Mylla .
