DESCRIPTION​

Easily bearing a resemblance to its smaller cousins, the Westar-17 clearly comes from the same manufacturers as the famous Westar line of blaster pistol. As far as carbines go, the Westar-17 is on the large and heavy side with the butt of the carbine having the option to be collapsed 10 centimeters or vis versa. This helps the increased stopping power of the carbine to be kept under control at greater range or be useful in closer quarters like storming a starship or in a city environment. The rugged design can be used in numerous harsh environments and continue to work without degraded performance.

The iconic yellow or blue bolts of the CCT products are fired from the weapon which deliver heavy damage to targets. The carbine possesses the option for a stun setting if the user so chooses. It is also commonly known as "MandalTech senaar'kad blaster carbine" which translates appropriatly to Talon. The history of the weapon is shared by groups like Death Watch, the Old Mandalorians in the years after the Great Purge, and in more recent years by Clan Solus.

Along the top of the weapon iron sights com standard as well as a 1-4x macroscope with low light capabilities. This can be replaced with most models or a helmet ammunition counter and approximate weapon targeting in a helmet HUD. This allows a projection of the scope to more easily appear in the helmet of a shooter and is appreciated by most Mandalorians. This requires the user to have synced with the specific weapon (one round). This allows the user to also know the weapon's ammunition count.

Furthermore it should be noted that the Westar-17 shares it's underwater firing capabilities as its forebearer, the Galaar-15. The design of the weapon doesn't allow as much ammunition to be held as some larger rifles or weaker carbines. But the design is an improvement on CTT's previous work. Today they can be found on the black market however most are owned by Mandalorian clans and produced in secret.

LEGALITY​

Restricted. Due to the nature of this device, Westar-17 blaster carbines are illegal or at least highly frowned upon on many worlds, directly relating to the restrictions placed on heavy blasters in much of the Galaxy.

INTENT​

To create something that's been kind of seen in canon that is also a high quality blaster carbine and modern star wars improvement of older blasters. Mandalorians need some cultural weapons too.

RESTRICTIONS​

Due to the nature of the weapon's design, the Westar-17 cannot be be modified to alter its ammo capacity, damage or fire rate. Other attachments are fine.
