Yes, but it's on the right hand side and that is the side the vent

Well, that would make sense in "real life" but seeing as how there is no easy
way to attach a pistol to a minifeg leg, I figured this was an easy way out. I
plan on looking at a copy of the cross sections book later today, to see what

The only thing that bothers me about it being an exhaust vent is the fact that
they included the clips on both sides of the speeder, but only one "vent".
That's what made me think it could have been a blaster that could've been
carried on either side, depending on the handedness of the trooper.
