The Wookiee bowcaster operates similarly to a blaster in that it fires bolts of energy (in this case magnetically sheathing metal shafts), but requires the strength of a Wookie to cock.

Why didn't Vader let Boba shoot Chewie?

Darth Vader stopped Boba Fett from shooting Chewbacca in The Empire Strikes Back because Chewie was a valuable, living hostage needed for Vader's larger plan to lure Luke Skywalker to Cloud City, and killing him would have ruined the trap by creating only dead bodies or uncontrolled chaos, not the psychological torment Vader intended. Keeping Chewie alive, alongside Leia and C-3PO, maintained hope and made Luke's inevitable arrival more impactful, while also showing Vader's control and preserving potential test subjects or sources of information.
