The so-called "Standard" Laser Pistol is a weapon widely popular in the Frontier Sector. It accepts standard powerclips or can be attached to a Power Beltpack or Power Backpack.
Laser pistols have an adjustable power setting ranging from 1 to 10, consuming an equal number of SEU per shot; lower settings are less damaging than higher settings, but all settings are technically "lethal", with no available "stun" setting.
A wide range of accessories are available for Laser Pistols, including Shoulder Stocks, Barrel Extensions and Optic Sights, which effectively convert the Pistol into a carbine.
Pan-Galactic Corporation markets the PGC-1 in various models, including one which is packed with Survival Kits in the Lifeboats of Starships exploring the Frontier. The PGC-1 is highly ergonomic and easily usable by Human, Yazirian, Dralasite and Vrusk hands, though a Vrusk version is available which is more comfortable for their hand anatomy.
Besides the PGC-1, other laser pistol models are available, such as the KE-1500, as well as lighter, more concealable versions like the KE-1000 and its Pan Galactic counterpart, the PGC-1L "Officer's Model".
