The Space Gun is a magic weapon that auto-fires quick green-colored lasers. Its projectile velocity is as fast as the Megashark, which is faster than any pre-Hardmode bullet-firing gun. Each laser can pierce up to two enemies, and emits moderate light for its entire flight.
A full set of Meteor Armor has the unique effect of making the Space Gun cost no mana to fire.
It is crafted by combining 20 Meteorite Bars (60 Meteorite ore) at an anvil. A full set of Meteor Armor and the Space Gun cost a total of 65 Meteorite bars to craft (195 meteorite ore).
Its best Modifier is Mythical.

Note
- Despite being called a "gun", the Space Gun does not fulfill the criteria for the Arms Dealer to spawn.
- The space gun can pierce three enemies at a time, which makes it quite useful in the pre-Hardmode dungeon, because of the large quantity of grouped enemies found there.
Tips
- The Space Gun can be very useful pre-Hardmode, but not as useful once you reach Hardmode, as most enemies have enough defense or health to brush off the attack.
- Unsurprisingly, the furious, taboo, intense, ignorant, and inept modifiers will not have any negative effects on mana while the set bonus is in effect
