This whole post is making me feel pretty nerdy already so I'll just leave my advice on it all: try not to think about it too much. Not only the Bowcaster, but also the Imperial Repeater and Golan Arms are described as shooting "metal bullets".īut like you said, how's it that the bullets do not get burned up? What is this mysterious super-metal? And if it's so strong as to not get burned up, how does it suddenly disappear when shot against a wall or solid target? How does it continuously fire metal bullets without being physically reloaded? According to my own handy-dandy JK3 Instruction Manual, it reads that the weapon fires "powerful bolts of metal enveloped in energy pockets". One example of the whole metal projectile encased in a "plasma shell" is a Wookie Bowcaster. Blaster bolts travel visibly slower than bullets, since a blaster bolt's trajectory can be visibly seen while a bullet hits its target in a fraction of a second.
At 299,792,458 meters a second, I doubt anything could even see the trajectory of a blaster bolt. If lasers traveled at the speed of light, there's no way a Jedi could deflect it.
