- Oro Wood Grip: Each Alderaan Officer Revolver is crafted with an Oro Wood Handle. While mass orders receive no attention to the handle, single custom purchases allow for personalizing the Oro Wood handle (such personalization can include intricate designs, family crests, etc etc).
Strengths:
- For what could be called a "Primitive" weapon, it has a considerable amount of stopping power. With its focus on it being a personal defense weapon, it is thus meant to ensure that the officer (or individual using the weapon) is capable of stopping assailants.
Weaknesses :
- Following the theory that an Officer should only "have a weapon to defend themselves with", the revolver has limited ammunition, making it next to useless in prolonged firefighters and effectively ensuring that it remains a personal defense weapon.
- Ammunition for the weapon is rare, requiring those that purchase the weapon to either manufacture their own, of return to Sorenn-Syrush Industries.
- Due in part to the type of ammunition that is used with the weapon, it must be loaded one chamber at a time with the included ramrod.

..:: Description ::..
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Alderaan Officer Revolver is a work of art in its own right. Designed and crafted for appearance and appeal, it is more of a statement of ones wealth rather than their statement of combat capability. Each weapon comes with an Oro Wood grip, which can be customized to fit an individuals personal tastes (though mass orders receive no such customization).
While a capable weapon, it is not entirely meant for a combat situation (due in part to its limited and rare ammunition). For the most part the weapon is intended to be used as a personal defense weapon, ensuring that the individual using the Revolver can protect themselves. However this is only so if they are facing no more than seven assailants. It most gifted strength however is its stopping power, which often causes the second, third, etc etc assailant to think twice once the first has been dropped.
