BlasTech X-8 Night Sniper

 BlasTech X-8 Night Sniper 

The X-8 Night Sniper is a unique blaster pistol designed for quiet, accurate shooting. Along with a computerized scope for long range shots, it features a "silent mode" that contains the loud discharge of energy from the muzzle and reduces the brightness of the bolt when activated. While this reduces the power of the weapon slightly (Damage 2d(5) burn, sur), it also makes the weapon much quieter and the shooter harder to spot (-4 to Hearing to hear the shot, -2 to Vision rolls to spot the shooter).

Because of its usefulness for assassins, the Empire placed strict restrictions on the weapon's sales while using it themselves.

The gas cartridge contains enough gas for 500 shots.
