The Ray Gun, as seen in Super Smash Bros. Melee.

The Ray Gun is an item seen in the Super Smash Bros. series.

In the original Super Smash Bros., it took the appearance of a small gray gun capable of shooting lasers. The lasers travel quickly, with an audible bang, and deal low damage, however it is very easy to juggle opponents with timed blasts from the gun. It has enough power for 16 shots, after which the Ray Gun becomes almost useless, only able to cause damage when thrown.

It returned in Smash Bros Melee, with its appearance upgraded to a more futuristic look. The lasers travel more slowly, though they do the same amount of damage. However, this makes juggling opponents considerably harder in Melee than in the game's predecessor. Also, the loud bang accompanying the shots is replaced by a more laser-like sound.
