Hold-Out Blaster Pistol(5)	300	3d4	-	Single Shot	0.5 kg	Energy	Illegal	Core

Small, palm-sized blasters see widespread use in weapon-restricted areas. Hold-out blasters are commonly found in the possession of undercover agents, gamblers, scoundrels, or nobles seeking to protect themselves. They are sometimes carried as a backup weapon for more lethal characters.

Because of its compact design, a hold-out blaster pistol grants a +5 equipment bonus on Stealth checks made to conceal the weapon.

A hold-out blaster requires an energy cell to operate. After 6 shots, the energy cell must be replaced.
