DESCRIPTION
<Where are my guards?! Why must I do everything myself!>
The Boonta Blaster was a a Huttese weapon, which was named after the infamous Hutt Boonta Hestilic Shad'ruu. An exotic, expensive and bejewelled weapon, they where often custom designed to the specific predictions of their owners and 'awarded' to Hutt Scions upon their eightieth birthday, the day they became an adult.
It was not particularly long range, it wasn't even very reliable.
Yet that wasn't the point. It's components were concealed beneath chromium, into which gems and other rare metals would be set - even the shots themselves came from a gemstone-encased barrel. The Hutts relied on the Boonta Blaster as the last line of defence in case their guards foolishly got themselves defeated - or, more often, if they wanted to execute a minion personally.
LEGALITY
Legal. Ownership of blaster pistols is not restricted in most of the Galaxy, however openly carrying such a weapon in public might be on more "civilized" worlds. On less civilized worlds, it still might draw unwanted scrutiny.INTENT
To bring a weapon from canon to the forum.RESTRICTIONS
This weapon would cost a fortune, and is made to order for Hutt Kajidii members.
