CharacteristicsEdit

The E-11s had a high-powered scope, allowing it to be used as a sniper weapon. In exchange for long-range power, however, the E-11s could only fire 6 shots before recharging. Also it was a very effective rifle as it could withstand any kind of weather and seldom jammed. It could shoot about 3 miles.^[source?]

Behind the scenesEdit

The canonicity of this weapon is ambiguous, however. The use of the MG34 as a Star Wars weapon originally came in the form of the DLT-19 heavy blaster rifle that first appeared in A New Hope. The appearance was cannibalized to fill the appearance of the weapons used by the sniper units of both the Republic and Empire in the Star Wars Battlefront games, and given the non-canonical titles of DC-15x, and E-11s.
