Ah. Well, JIC there are more mess ups in the number listings:

The long Clonetrooper rifle with the swiveling scope
The classic Stormtrooper blaster
Boba Fett's blaster (RotJ)

My favorites are the clonetroppers DC-15 rifle, the DLT-19 and the droid carbine.

T-21

Hey, if the DC-15 is small arms, then so is it.

The good old E-11 for me. *relives going through JK2 with E-11 on full auto*

More efficient to blast 'em in the head with the more accurate mode. Admittedly, less fun, though.

As cool as the I.M. Heavy Repeater and Flechette gun were, I wish they had a BlasTech T-21, DLT-20A or DH-17 as well as the E-11 and Bryar sawn-off. I mean, seriously, it's a Star Wars game.. two blasters doesn't cut it!

Again, I urge folks to check out

It's got great close-ups of all the weapons.

Ugh nitpickers! DC-15, DC-17, same shit different smell. So I got 5 and 7 wrong, sue me.

Well, change my primary vote to the DC-15 then! I like my rifles!

I'm rather partial to the blaster pistols that scout troopers use.

For me it would be the DC15 because they kill every thing they hit:)

Xess · Post by **Xess** » 2005-07-04 08:38pm

Gah, I suppose I better list my reasons for my choices,

DC-15: I like large rifles and any rifle that can kill SBDs and Droidekas in one shot is going to be high on my list of favorites

DL-19: This one screams that it is the DC-15 of the Empire, that and it looks cool.

Droid Carbine: I've always liked this gun. I think it looks cool and its firepower isn't half bad either.

Yipes. Looks like I have to change my vote's name to DC-15 rifle as well.

Does it say anywhere what company made the clonetroopers' blaster weapons?

Blast Tech Indutries made the DC-17m, so I it's probable that all of the DC-series are Blast Tech products.

The E-11 for me. I can never get enough of seeing those Stormtroopers in Bespin blast away at Leia, Chewie, and Lando as they run away.

FSTargetDrone · Post by **FSTargetDrone** » 2005-07-04 11:29pm

Solo's weapon is my favorite.

Tangent--What did Luke use in TESB? Looked similar to Solo's? He had it unholstered after landing on Bespin up until the Carbon Freeze Chamber duel. I always liked the look of that weapon.

Darth Yoshi · Post by **Darth Yoshi** » 2005-07-05 12:06am

IIRC, that was also a modded DL-44 like Solo's.

Vicious · Post by **Vicious** » 2005-07-05 12:10am

DL-44 for me. I just like the look, plus Han Solo just flat out rocks. Close second would be Leia's blaster from ANH. I liked that one for some reason.

E-11. The folding stock, scope, and various firing settings make it a very versatile weapon. Need to pick off some soldiers at a long range? Unfold the stock, use the scope, and you have a sniper rifle. Need a weapon used for medium ranges? Unfold the stock, switch it to full auto, and you have an assault rifle. Need a close quarters weapon for clearing out rooms? Fold up the stock, put it on full-auto, and you have a SMG. Need to take someone down alive? Switch it to stun. Pretty damned useful for just one weapon.

Captain tycho · Post by **Captain tycho** » 2005-07-05 03:53am

E-11 is first for me. It's just so damn cool, and incredibly useful. Second would probably be the DC-15. Mmmm, big guns...*Homeresque drool*

Trouble I have with E-11, is personal SoD failure. Every time I look at it, I think Sterling SMG. And I've never considered a Sterling (or for that matter most SMGs) a serious weapon for infantry. Although I vaguely recall the first stormtrooper squads in RL under Ludendoff(?) were armed with SMGs.

I liked the MG42/MG3 whatchamacallit tho.

Well, I guess today it's not as important as it was in WWII due to the assault rifle. But in WWII, the SMG was a great weapon for infantry.

The one you're thinking of is the DLT-19.

Eh, people are still going, "err what blaster was that, eh, the one that's like such-and-such real gun." FFS, check out this page already.

Sorry Vympel, you just had us completely confused there; we thought you were simply incapable of making mistakes

It was the DL-44 like Han's. I think Both of them got newer versions in ESB, as both had smaller Scopes and the Powerpacks looked a bit different.

Is it that you guys enjoy speculation more than fact?

Either the speeder bike trooper blaster, (I love the compactness) or the Naboo S-5 Blaster Pistol.
