I have a 4.1k gun.
They are proably doing it by using weapon overload 3 or 4.

You should run these 4 programs and it will make a world of difference.
Reactor Overload 3 (Privateer)
Weapon Capacitor Overcharge 3 (Privateer)
Weapon Overload 3 (Imperial)
Engine Overload 3 (Imperial)

I've honestly never seen a weapon with 5k max damage. They might be around, but I doubt they're common, and if they'd be Level 10 and terribly heavy.
There are a lot of guns with 5k or more DPS (Damage per Second), which means you factor all attributes together, perhaps they're talking about that.
I use this formula:
(((MinDam + MaxDam) / 2) / RefireRate) * Eff
I do this twice for Eff vs Shield and Eff vs Armor if they are different, if they're the same then obviously not.
And yes, use those programs mentioned above, they make a HUGE difference.

i think 5k is the max damage cap for weapons as well. they could be messing with you.

Highest damage on the cert 10 re's I use... 4750 on one and 4475 on the other. So a bit shy of 5k.
Use the Droid Proggies like they said above and get some lvl 6, 8, and 10 blasters re'ed. Spend time collecting the stats you want before the RE process.

I currently have a 4550 damage, and soon a 4792 damage. with any of the overloads, they can hit 5K

I've got a 4800 max dmg lvl 10 that is waiting for partners to get re'ed. That thing is going to be close if not over 5k.

Nice blaster! I'd recommend waiting until you have another sub-40k mass blaster, and other blasters with a minimum of 0.750 effectiveness (preferably 0.800+) to both stats. Close to (or over) 3k min damage would be advisable.

Over 5k if 5k isn't the max. At L10 the RE factor is 6%, so you'll be at 5088 max damage.
Ouch.

Got a friend who found a 5K damage un-RE'd 10, I think, but needless to say that's damn rare. 4700 or so's a good number to shoot for in the "great but not weeks-takingly-uber-to-find" level.
Deep Space or Kessel would probably be the best place to hunt for these.

I have two 4800 damage weapons on my B-Wing and two 3600 damage weapons. But I've never seen a weapon for 5000. Though they could be out there with some REing or "rare" drops...

"4700 or so's a good number to shoot for in the "great but not weeks-takingly-uber-to-find" level."
Speak for yourself, I've flown almost non-stop since launch and only just recently looted a 4.3k gun.
But then I only in the past 2 weeks got my OWN 8/8 disks from RE(2 of them), so maybe my luck's changing.
