[edit] Characteristics
Although it used the same type of targeting scope mount as the E-11 blaster rifle, it was less accurate and had a much longer effective firing range. This model of concussion rifle was used by 4-LOM, who acquired it after he teamed up with Zuckuss.
[edit] Behind the scenes
This rifle is a minor modification of the German MG34 machine gun. The same weapon was used as the basis of the DLT-19 heavy blaster rifle.
