DEMP Gun
manufactured by Merr-Sonn for the Empire, the anti-Droid ElectroMagnetic Pulse gun was used to disable droids when only the droids were targetted. The pulse was modified to penetrate a droid's shielded circuitry and "stun" it. The pulse had little or no effect on most life forms. Two forms of the DEMP Gun were produced, a pistol and a carbine. Mekuun also produced a version of this weapon. Note that the Arms and Equipment Guide indicates that DEMP stands for Destructive Electromagnetic Pulse.
