If I have Bistan on Miranda and her bow tie is at the sides, can I shoot proton torps out the front and then shoot out the side with Bistan?

No. A proton Torpedo is not a primary attack.

Bistan says after a primary attack. Torpedoes are not a primary weapon, so no.

Sad, but true

The only Gunner I can think of that triggers a bonus attack without requiring a primary attack is Han Solo [Rebel, Gunner]. With him you could shoot the turret at i7 then later fire the Torpedo at i4

Thanks. I don't need the bowtie forward to shoot a torpedo correct?
