The Ripshot is a single-shot disc blaster. Discs are loaded into the muzzle, similar to the Ricochet. A jam release switch is located on top of the priming slide. A set of iron sights are built atop the blaster. It has a space under the muzzle for an additional three discs to be stored.
The blaster can be slam fired[1], which is an uncommon feature on single-shot blasters.

Trivia[]
- It it advertised as a "fast firing" blaster, despite only being a single-shot blaster. This could be referencing its slam fire capabilities.
