DESCRIPTION
Once bought on Nar Shaddaa’s black market, this slugthrower pistol of unknown origin has been customly modified by Christine. It is fairly old and low tech but packs a hefty punch in its high stopping power.
Because of the steel sights and low ammo capacity in one magazine, the carrier will be wise to wait for the foe to be close enough til firing and making sure the shots counts. If close enough and hitting though, the velocity will often penetrate the armor of a stormtrooper. Also, its raw and heavy looks is often preventive enough to make troublemakers think twice before deciding to put up an up close fight.
It is fast to reload if one carries spare loaded magazines and the weight in the hand realy matches with its sturdy looks.
Makes for a basic, however very fit for its purpose, close quarters personal weapon to fend off offenders in the Nar Shaddaas risky nightlife.
