Han Solo's Blaster Apparently Uses The FORCE (Seriously)

Han Solo, the greatest scoundrel in Star Wars history, potentially had a blaster blessed in some strange way by the Force.

In-universe, Han was given the modified BlasTech Industries DL-44 by his mentor, Tobias Beckett, and he quickly realized it was the perfect weapon for a smuggler. Han actually removed the motion-sensitive barrel scope so it could be drawn quicker in a gunfight, largely because he found he practically didn't need to aim. Naturally, Han put this down to his own sharpshooting skill - but there may well be another reason.
