Ion-charge disperser rifle

Disperser, dispenser, let's call the whole thing off.

Bluestreak is armed with an ion-charge disperser rifle, though he sometimes refers to it as an ion-dispenser rifle, so whether it it disperses or dispenses ions is a matter of conjecture.

Fiction

Marvel The Transformers comics

Bluestreak's ion-charge disperser rifle could electrify a line of particles in the air in the direction in which it is pointed. While its accuracy was limited, it could shoot an electrified particle beam resembling blue lightning a distance of 12 miles and was capable of punching a 10 foot hole in a cinder-block wall. The electrical charge of a single bolt could be as high as 80,000 volts. Bluestreak's Universe profile

On a mission to protect Buster Witwicky, Bluestreak and Bumblebee were surprised by an attack from Laserbeak, though Bluestreak quickly recovered and took down the Decepticon with a metal-seeking silvery-blue burst of electricity from his ion-dispenser rifle. Brainstorm!

Notes

• Bluestreak's weapon went unnamed in the bio accompanying his Tech Specs, which merely notes that he "fires bombs up to 8.3 miles and lightning-like 80,000 volt beam up to 12 miles of limited accuracy", while his instructions generically label it a "laser gun".
