Matthew Savage (@mattsav.concept) on Instagram (post on November 20, 2019): "Original drawn up for Rogue One, this blaster was designed for Saw Gerrera. Very pleased and surprised to see it pop up in @respawn ‘s Jedi: Fallen Order. I designed it over an airsoft pistol so the entire barrel section would recoil when fired." (backup link) (screenshot)
