The MW-20 Bryar Pistol was a model of Bryar pistol.[1] An MW-20 was used by Cassian Andor and was also wielded by Clem Andor, Cassian's adoptive father.[3]
The MW-20 model of the Bryar pistol was a large, single-handed weapon, featuring a long and bulky frame built around a small grip. The center of the blaster featured a double ammo cartridge that rotated when the current cartridge overheated, readying a fresh one for firing.[6]
Behind the scenes[]
The MW-20 was inspired by the K-16 Bryar Pistol from Star Wars Battlefront, itself based on the Bryar pistol from the Legends video game Star Wars: Dark Forces, which partially inspired the plot of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. Extra features and design elements were added by the prop designers to make the weapon memorable and visually distinct, leading it to be declared a separate model of the same weapon.[1]
