Shockstun mist was a chemical used by bounty hunters to help immobilize targets that needed to be taken alive. Capable of quickly numbing and paralyzing exposed skin, shockstun mist was most effective when inhaled; resulting in paralysis that could last for hours. The chemical was best known for being introduced in the GRS-1 snare rifle, which had the ability to fire shockstun mist to a distance of about 150 meters. Immediately following the mist was a liquid spraynet which hardened after exposure to the air and helped restrict all movement of the paralyzed target.
A shockstun mist canister for the GRS-1 cost 75 credits and could fire up to twelve shots before the cartridge must be replaced.[1]
