Designation:
Heavy Blaster Pistol
Manufacturer:
SoroSuub Corporation
Physical
Description: Standard side arm, single handed grip,
sighting scope, three power settings. Aprox. 50 shots per
power pack. Larger and bulkier than the standard BE-25
and BE-35 pistols.
History:
The SoroSuub SG-6 represents a concerted
attempt by SoroSuub to break into a market sector dominated
by BlasTech's DL-4x series weapons, such as the DL-44 made
famous by people like Han Solo. This weapon was one of several
types selected by various members of Lynx Commando, and
its heavy firepower has won it several fans amongst the
Wolfshead pilots.
Use:
The SG-6 represents a large step-up in
firepower over the BE-25 and, to a lesser extent, the BE-35.
The SG-6 has slightly less range and accuracy than the larger
of the BE- pistols, but packs a significantly heavier punch.
This punch comes with a stiff price, however, as the power
pack - a standard, common size across most sidearms including
those used as standard by Wolfshead and Lynx - will provide approximately
half the shots compared to use in a normal blaster pistol.
Raiven
and Solo carry the SG-6 instead of the standard-issue BE-25
when flying due to the extra firepower it provides.
Heavy blaster pistols are illegal on many planets of the Empire,
but it is a rule that is generally ignored amongst the circles
and areas in which Wolfshead operate in when planetside.
It should be noted for covert operations, however, that
local laws should be researched beforehand to ensure that
any weapons that are planned to be carried overtly are legal
in the local jurisdiction.
