Sidearm Blaster Pistol

About the Sidearm Blaster Pistol

The workhorse holstered blaster, the sidearm pistol is the weapon everyone from a nervous spacer to a seasoned smuggler keeps within reach. Light, reliable, and quick to draw, it fires a standard energy bolt with enough punch to settle most trouble and an adjustable stun setting for the times a corpse would raise more questions than it answers. It will never out-range a rifle or out-punch a heavy blaster, but its virtues are the ones that matter day to day: it never gets in the way, it clears leather fast, and it works. Freighter captains tuck one under the console, mercenaries carry one as a backup to a backup, and travelers on rough worlds sleep easier with one on the nightstand. Undramatic and dependable, it is the blaster that has saved more lives than any celebrated weapon, simply by being there when it counts.
