A macroscope, or macroscope sight, was a commonly-used sighting device across a variety of blaster weapons for magnification, used for targeting when firing a weapon.[1]
Phasma's blaster rifle, a modified Sonn-Blas F-11D blaster rifle belonging to the First Order Captain Phasma, had a macroscope sight that gave the blaster rifle eight-times magnification and also low-light capabilities. The standard-issue F-11D blaster rifle, used by First Order stormtroopers, had an adjustable J19 electroscope, and the First Order Snowtroopers carried a modified model which also had anti-fogging filaments.[1]
The smuggler Han Solo's heavy blaster pistol, a customized BlasTech DL-44 heavy blaster pistol, had a macroscope that was detachable. Similarly, the Resistance Commander Poe Dameron's BlasTech EL-16HFE blaster rifle had an adjustable macroscope.[1] Orson Callan Krennic also owned a non-regulation DT-29 heavy blaster pistol that was custom fitted with a macroscope.[2]
