The Kalranoos carbine was a sonic carbine weapon developed by weapons engineer Bobor Kalranoos[1] during the Imperial Period.[2] It was a hybrid design that stemmed from the modifications of a Geonosian carbine.[1] It was equipped with a bio-link module that permitted its user to be directly interfaced with the weapon.[2]
One particular Kalranoos carbine was found in Sordaan Xris's collection of exotic weapons. Sordaan claimed to have acquired the weapon in a wager with a Leresai bounty hunter.[1] Another such weapon was found by a spacer on Talus during the Galactic Civil War.[3]
