| BlasTech Protector Carbine |
 |
| The Protector was a failed project of BlasTech, where they tried to persuade the military that artillery crew should carry a heavier backup weapon than a blaster pistol. To secure that new market they made a few risky decisions: they needed it to do more damage than a heavy pistol, but it also needed to be fairly compact. This resulted in a fairly low ammo capacity, and a reduced range. BlasTech thought that an emergency weapon would not need many shots, and that anything outside the range of the Protector would mean it was inside the range of the artillery itself. Alas, the procurement office decided against it so BlasTech was forced to find a new market, but few official instances saw use for such a specialized weapon. In the end the weapon was sold to any buyer in a attempt to get a return on costs. Nowadays it can be found in the hands of pirates, and on backwater planets. |
