Description: The first true weapon produced under the companies name. Designed for nothing other than fightin' and killin'. CEO Macharius Solaire asked his chief weapons designer to make something big, powerful, intimidating and able to kill Sith. The Peacebreaker is what came from that request. A gunmetal black, scoped, twin barrel heavy blaster pistol so big they put a forward grip on it for the pansies to use.
The main feature is its dual time delayed shot. The upper chamber fires first, and a fraction of a second latter the second lower chamber shoots its bolt to trail immediately behind the other on a slightly different trajectory thanks to position and recoil. Firing delay is controlled by a computer. The whole purpose being a lightsaber wielding enemy would have a much tougher time deflecting two bolts, on two paths, with a very slight delay between them. The effects of this would also be able to be magnified by dual wielding two of these blasters. And possibly the element of surprise. The other great thing is being able to hit non saber wielding enemies with two bolts for twice the stopping power.
It comes with a price though. The extra barrel, components and grip add weight, already being a heavy pistol, this may tire the users arms faster. And may add a difficulty aiming with one hand. The other detriment is that with firing two bolts with a single trigger pull. It eats through its ammunition faster. So while its power cell may hold a charge for fifty shots, the user only has twenty-five pulls of the trigger before they have spent their cell. Users must take care to remember this. An EMP may damage the timing computer, causing the under-barrel to not delay, but it will still remain functioning after any disrupting effects disipate. An Ion blast hitting the weapon would render it useless, disrupting its energy flow and melting fuses, and possibly other damage. Requiring time consuming repairs that can not be done on the battlefield. Do try to not let the weapons get hit though.
The power cell is located in the pistol grip of the weapon. With its release button located on the right hand side, behind and above the trigger. The gas canister is a rectangular box cartridge located ahead of the trigger. Removable by squeezing the back end and pulling down. Both of these are plug and play, needing no action after reloading to fire again. A x2 scope is permanently mounted on top for precision aiming. The under barrel grip is meant to aid the user heft the gun if they are so inclined. It is adjustable to three positions by a locking screw.
