'''''Star Wars''''' is a long-running space opera multimedia franchise created by George Lucas, which began from the 1977 film ''[[Star Wars (1977)|Star Wars]]'' (retroactively retitled ''[[Star Wars (1977)|Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope]]'') directed by Lucas. Following the release of the original six films, Lucasfilm would then be acquired by the Disney Corporation, which would subsequently release three more feature films (aka the ''Sequel Trilogy''), following the saga of the Skywalker family, and numerous "spinoff" feature films, in addition to several live action series released to their streaming service [[Disney+]]. Throughout the films and media in the ''Star Wars'' saga, Lucas was determined that the universe he envisioned would have a "lived-in" look to it. Thus, the many weapons seen in the saga are in fact visually modified or based upon real-world weapons.

==BlasTech E-11 blaster rifle==
 
Standard issue blaster rifle of the Imperial Stormtroopers. The E-11 blaster rifle props were built from the British-made [[Sterling SMG | Sterling L2A3]] submachine gun. Numerous main characters, including Princess Leia, Luke Skywalker ([[Mark Hamill]]), and Han Solo ([[Harrison Ford]]) use the weapon.
 
While the gun is being fired, in some scenes, if you look closely, you can see the spent casings being ejected out of the gun. The one that comes to mind is in ''"A New Hope"'' when Luke and Leia swing across the gap to the other side of the bridge while inside the death star. The stormtrooper that fires at them from the platform they just left clearly has spent casings coming out of the gun.

==BlasTech DH-17 blaster pistol==
 
The BlasTech DH-17 blaster pistol is one of the blaster pistols on issue to the Rebel Alliance. Like the E-11 blaster rifle prop, the DH-17 blaster pistol prop was also built from the British-made [[Sterling SMG | Sterling L2A3]] submachine gun.

==BlasTech A280 and A295 blaster rifles==
 
Standard issue blaster rifle of the Rebel Alliance ground forces in both ''The Empire Strikes Back'' and ''Return Of The Jedi''. Both the A280 and A295 blaster rifle props were CAST FROM replicas simlilar to (built from) both the World War 2-era German [[Sturmgewehr 44]] (''The Empire Strikes Back'') and from the [[M16]] series rifles (''Return Of The Jedi'').

==DLT-19 heavy blaster rifle==
 
Standard issue heavy blaster of the Imperial Stormtroopers. The DLT-19s were nothing more than World War 2 German [[MG34]] general purpose machine guns with little to no modifications to its external appearance.
The weapon shown carried by the lead stormtrooper is actually a British Lewis light machine gun.
 
in the video game "Star Wars Battlefront" this gun has a sniper variant but is never used as a heavy blaster.

==DL-44 blaster pistol==
 
The DL-44 blaster pistol was the blaster of choice for Han Solo ([[Harrison Ford]]) and the Rebel Alliance and was possibly the best known duplicate of a real gun. The DL-44 blaster pistol prop was built from a [[Mauser C96]] handgun, sometimes with a sniper scope. The modifications are obviously added on to the exterior, though the distinct "broomhandle" grips are still wooden.

The blaster utilized by the Jawa who shot R2-D2 in ''A New Hope'' was built from a cut-down British Lee-Enfield No.1 MkIII* series bolt-action rifle with the grenade launcher cup attached to the shortened barrel.

In Episode 1, the Naboo troops used this weapon that was based around a Walther LP300 Model Air Gun.

==DC-15A heavy blaster rifle==


Manufactured by BlasTech Industries, the DC-15-series was a range of plasma weapons used during the Clone Wars. It is based on parts from the German [[MG34]] making up the rear half, as well as much of the [[Sterling SMG|Sterling L2A3]] turned upside-down for the front.

In the video game ''Star Wars: Battlefront'' and its sequel this gun is used for almost every clone weapon. It has a shotgun and a sniper variant.

Throughout the films and media in the Star Wars saga, Lucas was determined that the universe he envisioned would have a "lived-in" look to it.
