Description
The small EC-17 can be operated one-handed and drawn quickly while mounted on a speeder or moving through confined terrain. A side-mounted trigger remains accessible through gloves, and the integrated sight supports rapid close-range fire. Some models include a high-intensity light capable of briefly disorienting a target.
