}} Ray Guns (ビームガン) are weapons used by people who cannot use ki. They are guns that fire laser beams capable of massive damage to a normal being, but useless to one with a higher power level.

Overview

Ray Guns are similar to the blasters and arm cannons used by the Planet Trade Organization, but unlike them Ray Guns are simply smaller self defense weapons used for protecting a planet or during war.

Zeshin's comrades using Ray Guns

They are first seen on the Mirror spaceship, used by Zeshin, Bun and their comrades to threaten Gohan, Bulma and Krillin (thinking that they are involved in the Planet trade).

Soldiers of the Planet Trade Organization on Planet Frieza 79 are seen wearing Ray Gun belts. In the OVA Dragon Ball Z: Plan to Eradicate the Saiyans, God Guardon uses the Ray Gun on his arm against Goku. In the anime, a flashback shows the Tuffles firing beams at the Saiyans during the Saiyan-Tuffle war.

Don Kee's soldiers use Ray Guns. Cardinal Mutchy Mutchy, the leader of the Luud Cult, uses a Ray Gun to stop Goku's charge at him.

Trivia

On an image the series' author, Akira Toriyama, made for the 1989 Weekly Shōnen Jump #47, Krillin wields a green laser sword and Bulma has a laser gun similar to those of Star Wars. This artwork is also featured in Daizenshuu 1. It should be noted that Akira Toriyama has stated that he was a big fan of the Star Wars series.[1]
