The original DL-44 Blaster from Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi, used by Harrison Ford “Han Solo” is now up for sale at an auction. If you’ve got about $200,000 to burn, this amazing piece could be yours.

“Based on the German issue Mauser C96 pistol, this piece, measuring 11 in. long, was custom made for the film from resin by casting the original hero prop from the first Star Wars: A New Hope, it therefore exhibits the same serial number as the hero prop, which is thought to no longer exist. The blaster is exactly in its original filming condition and therefore exhibits wear from use, but retains all of the original details, including the flash suppressor and scope”
