The BlasTech E-17d sniper rifle, or Rebel sniper rifle, was produced during the height of the Galactic Civil War. Blasts from this rifle were extremely accurate over long distances and remained coherent enough to provide a long-distance punch. The barrel was perforated along its entire length, giving the weapon a distinctive appearance. Throughout the Galactic Civil War, the weapon was used extensively by Rebel Alliance snipers against Imperial troops.
[edit] Technical specifics
The E-17d had a higher magnification level on its scope than Imperial sniper rifles but carried a slightly smaller magazine (four as opposed to six rounds).
The lasers fired by the E-17d rifle were bright orange or yellow in color.
The E-17d was similar in design to the DLT-20A blaster rifle occasionally used by Imperial stormtroopers.
