This allows a heavy blaster to have the same range of a blaster pistol. It consists of a power converter, a focusing lens adapter, new galven circuitry and modified gas flow regulator. Very expensive, very hard to find and usually quite illegal. It should be noted that even though it is possible to fire a heavy blaster fitted with a converter at the longer range without a loss of throughput, there is a real and serious danger of the weapon overloading, usually with explosive consequences.
