DESCRIPTION
The Westar C-93 "Ranger" heavy blaster pistol is a new design by Concord Crescent Technologies spurred into production by a surge of activity among the Mandalorian clans. Calls to war include a need for weaponry, and few companies can match the Mandalorians' when it comes to powerful pistols.

Forged from a mix of durasteel and dallorian alloy, these blasters are designed for both durability and reliability. Despite being longer than most standard pistols the slim profile and balanced weight allows easy and accurate targeting. Atop the weapon is an optional detachable microscope that replaces the standard iron sights frequently preferred by Mandalorian warriors. Its simple grip beneath the barrel lets one hold it securely in two hands but is easily removed and replaced with under-barrel attachments of the owner's choosing.

Its most unusual feature is the charging handle at the rear. When pulled back, besides becoming a slim stock, the internal blast and focusing chambers are reconfigured such that the Ranger functions as an especially small carbine. The range more than doubles at the cost of reduced shot power. Fortunately, the ability for a perfectly reliable pistol to act as a main arm when needed makes up for this shortcoming, especially for forces as generally mobile as Mandalorians. The stock's final length can be preset using the including maintenance kit's tools.

Rangers power packs are reloaded through the grip. This weight, combined with he charging handle, makes for a surprisingly well-balanced pistol despite its length. It features ambidextrous controls and operating lights above the grip, using a setting wheel and diagonal light. Standard for many modern weapons, green indicates safety on, red is live, and blue is stun.

Despite the dark weather-proofed coating, the barrel's business end still tends to gather a polychromatic sheen when frequently used, referred to as 'Slingshine'.

Mostly restricted to those in Mandalorian space, these weapons are seen by some as a sign of pride in the resurgence of their people.

LEGALITY
Legal. However, as a blaster specific to the Mandalorian clans, carrying it might draw attention if the helmet doesn't first.

INTENT
To create a versatile blaster pistol built and wielded by Mandalorians.

RESTRICTIONS
Only available by default to Mandalorian faction members. A magnetic accelerator can't be applied unless you want it to explode in your face.
