It is likely that Umarex was not the original distributor of these pistols since the movie props bear an additional manufacturer's mark not present on the current models. Although the pistol is marked "Made in Italy" Umarex is a German company. The basis for this blaster is a Umarex RO 72 Panther De-Luxe target air pistol. This blaster was the most common weapon among Jabba the Hutt's entourage. Han Solo, half blind at the time, came to Lando's aide with a quick shot to the Sarlacc tentacle wrapped around his leg.
A disguised Lando Calrissian stood watch with this blaster at his side, ready to aide his friend's when the time came.
Luke Skywalker used the force to gain this blaster in an attempt to fire on Jabba the Hutt. He managed to fire a single shot which flew wild as the floor gave way beneath him. Though no longer common in military service, it is still widely used by law enforcement, mercenaries, outlaws and private citizens.In a split second this blaster flew from the guard's holster and into the young Jedi's hand. Effective range is about 30 meters, with accurate shooting enabled by a computerized scope.īeing among the most widely manufactured weapons in Galactic history, the DL-18 can be found in the hands of heroes and villains alike. The DL-18 fires standard medium-power bolts or stun blasts, and can get about 100 shots out of a standard power pack. Using a miniaturized version of the "squintpipe" process employed by larger turbolaser weapons, it achieves a respectable amount of firepower while still keeping its cost low, making it extremely popular. The DL-18 is among the most widely manufactured blasters ever produced. Originally designed prior to the Clone Wars, it is a simple, reliable weapon, if not the most long-ranged or accurate one. DESCRIPTIONThe DL-18 blaster pistol is a hand weapon produced by BlasTech Industries, one of the Galaxy's premier small arms manufacturers.
