DL-44 Heavy Blaster Pistol

The BlasTech Industries DL-44 Heavy Blaster Pistol was a powerful side-arm from the time of the Galactic Civil War. 
==Characteristics==
The DL-44 was a powerful, highly modifiable and accurate blaster pistol. She packed quite a punch compared to other pistols without losing accuracy, what made her a prime choice among many groups and individuals, ranging from smugglers and bounty hunters to military and the Rebellion.
Aside being a powerful and reliable sidearm, the weapon had other attractive features such as a vibration system built into the handgrip that pulsed gently to alert the user that the weapon had only five shots left, and the ability to charge a bolt twice as powerful into a capacitor without blowing the gun to smithereens. Relatively normal, the guns gear included a motion-sensitive scope and a galven circuitry that allowed the pistol to deal more damage with a normal energy drain and fire rate. 
BlasTech also later released variant models of the weapon, including the DL-44 XT, DL-T, and simplified Metal edition.
==History==
Originally designed by Blastech, the gun found a increased use on the hands of outlaws and slightly-illegals individuals and groups like smugglers and the Rebel Alliance due to the proved effect that it could penetrate stormtrooper armor. This caused the Empire to put a restriction order upon this model, restricting and technically completely forbidding the purchase and ownership of the gun. This caused other companies to take advantage of the model and capabilities, releasing similar but tuned-down versions of the 44's, such as Merr-Sonn Munitions, Inc's Flash 4 and Power 5 Pistol. 
== Foot Note ==
This weapon is used within a RESOLUTION Plots and is so part of the RSNverse of Star Wars lore.
In the RSNverse, the history may run a different course to that of canon or the EU.
