Blasters, Rifles, and Heavy Weapons
Blasters and rifles and guns, oh my! What can you say? This is just a tiny piece of heaven - and you've finally become a part of it.
Almost every type of blaster you've heard of is here in its beauty. You subconsciously remind yourself to close your mouth so your jaw doesn't hang open.
Then you force yourself to look around - carefully, so as to not make Daar nervous. Rumor DOES have it, that he disintegrated someone once - just for looking at him funny.
You stare at the weapons, knowing you need only click the button on their case to get a description. Daar sighs, however, knowing that the voice module for some of the weapons has been worn out. Until he can get replacement parts, some of the weapons' descriptions will go untold.
Like the other 'hard to come by' items, there is a note beneath each one that reads:
WE WILL NOT TESTIFY TO THE OWNERSHIP OR SALE OF THESE WEAPONS, SHOULD A LEGAL MATTER ARISE.
PURCHASE THIS WEAPON AT YOUR OWN RISK!
The BlasTech DH17
The BlasTech DH-17 blaster pistol is a standard-issue military sidearm used by both Imperial Navy and Rebel soldiers. With its sturdy and reliable design, it remains a popular weapon with New Republic personnel. The DH-17 is designed for short-range combat with an optimum range of 30 meters and a maximum range of 120 meters. Its blasts can pierce stormtrooper armor or penetrate a low-level force field, but won't puncture the hull of a starship. It is a perfect weapon for shipboard troopers, and on the lowpower 'stun' setting, a blast can knock a human unconscious for up to ten minutes.
The DH-17's blaster gas chamber carries enough blaster gas for over five hundred shots, while its power pack supplies sufficient energy for one hundred shots. An experienced trooper can change packs in about five seconds, and drained packs can be recharged via a generator in about fifteen minutes.
Like most sidearms, the DH-17 is semiautomatic, firing once each time the trigger is pulled. The weapon can be modified for fully automatic fire, although this mode drains the power pack in less than twenty seconds – and excess heat may melt the internal components or cause an explosive overload
The BlasTech DLT19
The DLT-19, enhanced with extra power packs and greater range, is well designed to be fired prone with its forward folding tripod, making it the weapon of choice of heavy assault warriors. An expensive weapon, we recommend it for the advanced hunter or, with a mounted scope, for long-ranged hunts.
The BlasTech E-11
The BlasTech E-11 blaster rifle has a light well-balanced design that permits accurate one-handed fire, allowing soldiers to move unencumbered and use the weapon in close quarters almost as easily as one wields a pistol. This rifle has good long-range targeting because of the extendable sighting stock, the barrel's advanced galven circuitry, and the computer-enhanced scope, which filters out smoke and haze and enhances vision in low-light conditions. The E-11 blaster rifle has a maximum range of three hundred meters and an optimum range at one hundred meters, nearly three times the reach of a blaster pistol.
The side-mounted power pack supplies enough energy for one hundred shots, The E-11 can be set for a variety of power levels, from stun to full blast. Because of its large quarter-centimeter bore, the E-11 is quite lethal at full power. Although both Imperial and New Republic soldiers normally use the semiautomatic setting in order to conserve ammunition and allow adequate cooling, the weapon has full automatic and pulse fire settings. Extended automatic fire may throw the barrel out of alignment.
The BlasTech E-Web Repeater
The BlasTech E-Web is among the most heavy repeating blasters in the galactic arsenal. The E-Web has proven to be effective against enemy vehicles and infantry units alike. The weapon has an optimum range of two-hundred meters and a maximum range of half a kilometer, and the weapon offers enough firepower to punch through a snowspeeder's armoured plating.
For best use, the E-Web requires both a gunner and a second crew member to monitor and adjust the Eksoon Class 4T3 power generator. As with many high-yield generators, the 4T3 is prone to overheating – and potentially explosive overload – despite its advanced GK3 Cryocooler cooling unit. Power is fed into the E-Web via a three meter long conduit that connects to the base of the BlasTech TR-63 autocushion tripod. The E-Web's built in long range comlink includes an automatic encryption module for secured communications with other units. The computerized fire control and targeting system includes a Starvision and IR low-light enhancement modules for night combat.
While the E-Web has extraordinary features, it requires an extended setup time. If the 4T3 generator is 'cold,' it takes nearly fifteen minutes for personnel to deploy the weapon, calibrate the generator's power flow, and configure the targeting software. Some Imperial crews pre-charge the generator for faster setup at the expense of potential power surges. Thus, the second crew member must carefully adjust power flow to prevent an overload.
The E-Web ideally requires two people, but it is possible to man the weapon with one. This greatly compromises efficiency. The gunner will have to choose the power generator's 'preset' mode, which reduces the firing rate but maintains the generator and gun within safe operating temperatures.
The BlasTech T21
Significantly more powerful than the standard blaster rifle, the BlasTech T-21 light repeating blaster is the most deadly Imperial blaster that can be transported and fired by one soldier. The T-21 proves a common support weapon for any militia squad. Artillery sections normally include at least one soldier with a T-21 to provide cover for other crewmen while they are setting up artillery pieces and heavy repeating blasters such as the E-Web. While medium and heavy repeating blasters provide significantly more firepower than does the T-21, they are also bulkier and require crews of two to three soldiers. They take several minutes to set up or break down, and far too often, military units don't have the luxury of waiting around for heavy support weapons.
By contrast the T-21 package is designed for use by a soldier on the move. The weapon, its belt-carried tripod, and the twenty-kilogram backpack generator can be set up and made operational in less than thirty seconds. While the blaster can be fired two-handed by a moving soldier, the light tripod offers improved accuracy. The tripod can be fully extended for instances when the T-21 is to be used as a weapon emplacement but a partially extended position is superb for sniper attacks, allowing the gunner to take advantage of the T-21's maximum range of three hundred meters.
While the T-21's standard power packs supply only enough energy for twenty-five shots, its separate continuous-feed power generator gives the weapon potentially unlimited fire capability, although the generator's low cooling capacity in turn limits the fire rate to once per second.
This weapon is devastating against infantry, wielding enough power output to slice easily through personal armor suits or to break down force fields. The T-21 can also cut through the armor plating used on many light combat vehicles, such as armored landspeeders. In the hands of a skilled operator, the T-21 can eliminate an entire enemy squad in a matter of seconds.
The Droid Blaster
The blaster rifle, a more powerful version of the standard blaster, is among the most common military and security weapons in the galaxy. These weapons are preferred by soldiers and other combat personnel because they are more lethal then the standard blasters, yet compact and easy to use. The most efficient blaster rifles have an optimum range of 100 meters and a maximum range of 300 meters, nearly three times the rage of a blaster pistol. Such weapons use power packs with enough energy for 100 rounds. They also have numerous power settings, and can alternate between semi-automatic and fully automatic fire. The Battle droid blaster rifle is specially made for the Trade Federations battle droid. It is mounted on the back of the Battle droid and has a large trigger for the large fingers of the battle droid.
The Relby K23
To be a pistol, the power and effectiveness of the Relby-k23 is incredible high. Although these blasters are on the civilian restricted list, it is known that some imperial agents use them anyway, due to a terrible characteristic: it inflicts severe pain prior to death.
It has low refraction index that provides minimal beam dispersion, and its safety is known to fail, so it should be handled wisely.
The Tenloss Disruptor Rifle
The Tenloss rifle is outlawed by many, but is still produced on the black market and used by some criminal elements. The primary fire produces a single fast-moving shot with a medium rate of fire. The secondary mode can be charged up and disintegrates living targets. It allows scope activation and zoom.
Affecting matter at the molecular level, this rifle rips apart living material with ease and speed. It is outlawed across the galaxy and used only by some outlaws and gangsters. It has a slow rate of fire, at least 5 seconds between every shot, although it is very lethal indeed. It also has a scope and a charge function. It takes 5 seconds for the shot to fully charge and has great recoil and inaccuracy, but in one shot it can rips off limbs, and even destroy a body if the shot is aimed well enough.
The Wookie Bowcaster
The bowcaster is essentially a magnetic accelerator with twin polarizers that use alternating polarity pulses to accelerate a highly tensile metal bowstring and propel an explosive quarrel at extremely high speed. The fired quarrel has the appearance of an elongated blaster bolt because it is wrapped in an energy envelope that channels the quarrel's explosive force into the target. The result is a weapon that's considerably less advanced than a blaster pistol yet delivers an equivalent amount of damage.
Tremendous strength is needed to cock the weapon, which notches the bowstring and loads a quarrel from the ammo cartridge. This primitive arming system limits the bowcaster's rate of fire and places great emphasis on the one’s patience and marksmanship, since it may take several seconds for the warrior to get off another shot. Some warriors have modified their bowcaster's by adding multiple bowstrings, dual bows or an automatic recocking system. During the Imperial occupation of Kashyyyk, Wookiees often bolted blaster rifles to their bowcaster's for added firepower.
Bowcasters are short-range weapons with an optimum range of thirty meters and a maximum range of only fifty meters. The weapon can be disassembled and carried in a utility pouch; it can be put bock together in less than a minute.
Hand-built by the master weapon crafters at Kashyyyk, bowcaster's are often bestowed to young Wookiees as they are completing adulthood rites of passage. This tradition has endured for thousands of years, and a warrior's bowcaster is considered a visible symbol of his or her courage and honor. These highly prized possessions are often engraved with clan markings and pictographs depicting a warrior's greatest accomplishments.
