It is a large, intimidating blaster pistol based of the venerable IR-5 Blaster Pistol. Similar to the IR-5, the ST-19 has a rate of fire nearly approaching that of a repeating blaster, but sacrifices damage per shot to achieve this. Also included is an integrated targeting computer, which can be further augmented with a laser sight mounted on the lower tactical rail. These combine to the give the weapon respectable accuracy, though the precision is still garbage.
The power cell is limited to only 80 shots, and with the high rate of fire this tends to drain quickly. A rapid-release mechanism facilities the swift changing of power cells.
Being large for a blaster pistol, the ST-19 ends up displayed rather prominently when worn on the hip, something Tregessar officials tends to use as a means of persuasion. Soldiers and mercenaries who use the weapon tend to wear it on the thigh to avoid restricting movement.
Given that the ST-19 is by far the most common Tregessar weapon, it is much more likely to be seen in the hands of non-house affiliates. This doesn't mean that the House doesn't track down black market sources, but they don't exactly go after individual users with the fervor seen otherwise.
