The X-8 Night Sniper was a model of blaster pistol manufactured by BlasTech Industries that featured a computerized scope and silent mode operation.[1] The bounty hunters Latts Razzi[3] and C-21 Highsinger[2] were known to use such pistols during the Clone Wars.[2][3] Lando Calrissian also used an X-8 Night Sniper during his time as a smuggler, and used it to fight the henchmen of the crime boss Azmorigan on the planet Lothal.[4] X-8 Night Snipers were used by both the Alliance to Restore the Republic and the Galactic Empire during the Galactic Civil War.[5]
