The Accelerated Charged Particle Array Gun (commonly known as the ACP Array/Scatter Gun) was a short-range shotgun manufactured by Arakyd Industries.
The ACP gun was more suited for close quarters combat where extreme blast force was needed. Like all ACP weapons, the Array Gun was more effective against organic targets than droids. The gun could hold up to eight cartridges at a time in its magazine, though more cartridges could be carried by the user, and required manual cocking to move the next round into the chamber.
During the Clone Wars, the weapons were used by Trandoshan mercenaries and slavers.
The Array Gun was just as powerful as the ACP Repeater as each particle in the ACP cartridges were the equivalent to 1 bolt from the ACP Repeater. According to Atin, member of Omega Squad, this weapon dealt better with shields than BlasTech E-Webs.
The gun had many similarities with the blaster used by Cade Skywalker and Tyber Zann.
