What are those "Clone Troopers" carrying?

It looks sort of like a prototype E-11 blaster. Might be that weapon's predecesor. Anyone know?

Ah. That would make sense, as the big guns they used in the Battle of Geonosis were DC-15's.

Is it just me, or do they look a little like Sten guns?

The E-11, of course, is a modified Sten gun prop.
