BLASTECH DL-18



BlasTech DL-18 - 420 ICs
The BlasTech DL-18 blaster pistol was a cheap weapon commonly used during the time of the Galactic Civil War. As a result of the inexpensive price, members of the Rebel Alliance often carried DL-18s. The pistol generated only average power, and had some difficulty penetrating Stormtrooper armor. It was manufactured in the same series as the more powerful DL-44. A very basic design that thrived throughout the galaxy for decades, the DL-18 balanced multiple virtues and could be easily customized to the wielder's preferences. Its chief competitor was Merr-Sonn's Model 44. A DL-18 measured about 1 kg in weight. Weapons of this make were common on Tatooine (several of Jabba the Hutt's skiff guards used DL-18 pistols), especially in the infamously violent city of Mos Eisley; hence, the model was sometimes nicknamed the "Mos Eisley Special".
