DH-17 blaster carbine

The DH-17 blaster carbine was a model of blaster carbine, and a heavier version of the DH-17 blaster pistol. It was heavily used during the Galactic Civil War by the Imperial Navy and the Rebel Alliance Navy's marines during shipboard skirmishes. It was known for its versatility, durability, and simplicity.

The DH-17 carbine was capable of penetrating most personal armors, but it couldn't penetrate a ship's hull, which made it ideal for battles onboard starships. It could fire automatically and its parts were easily found on the black market. Rebel marines would often install spread barrels onto the weapon, turning it into a deck sweeper known as the DH-17 short carbine.
