Stormtrooper Blaster
Episode IV: A New Hope

The Stormtroopers were unswervingly loyal to the Emperor and represented the most visible extension of Imperial might. They served both the ground-based armies of Palpatine's forces, and the space-based Imperial starfleet. Formidable in their white armor, their primary means of enforcement was the BlasTech E-11 blaster rifle.

The prop makers modified the military version of a 1950’s British submachine gun to create this blaster prop. To create this fearsome weapon, the prop-makers modified the gun by adding plastic “T-track” to cover the barrel vent holes. A metal strip was bent into shape and attached to the top of the receiver in order to attach a WWII tank azimuth scope. The original 32 round magazine for the submachine gun was shortened to hold three rounds.

While many different resin stunt Stormtrooper blasters were used during filming, Master Replicas has recreated the metal hero version based upon the blank-firing submachine gun as used in A New Hope. With its heavy, steel construction, our replica weighs almost as much as the actual prop.

Master Replicas takes great pride in presenting this most sought-after prop replica. We hope that you’ll enjoy our interpretation of this iconic weapon.
