A favored rifle of Assassins of The Galactic Empire when it was still extant, The Nightstinger has been the end of countless dissidents, whether through sniping them directly, or framing them for murder and destroying their credibility. Some planets treat it with the same severity as they would a Disruptor, and the risk of being executed on the spot as an Assassin is a very real possibility without the proper documentation and licenses.
