ORIGINAL SCREEN-USED HERO E-11 STORMTROOPER BLASTER FROM STAR WARS: EPISODE IV - A NEW HOPE. - (TCF, 1977) The E-11
blaster is the standard weapon of the Imperial Stormtroopers due to its compact size and formidable fi re power. This screen-used hero Stormtrooper
Blaster is one of the “live” weapons used during fi lming of Star Wars. Bapty & Co., the legendary British movie weapon makers/suppliers,
based this weapon on a British Sterling submachine gun which was dressed for the studio. Loaded with blank ammunition during the production,
it produced realistic smoke and recoil eff ects when fi red, making the actors look as though they were actually fi ring laser bolts. Following
the weapon’s use in Star Wars, Bapty removed the studio dressing t-shaped polymer “vent fi ns” that span the length of the barrel as well as the
scope and scope rail. A vintage replacement scope was fi tted with a replicated rail and vent fi ns returning this weapon to its screen appearance.
Comes with the original deactivation certifi cate issued when the weapon was rendered non-fi ring. A rare piece of original Star Wars screen-used
weaponry.
