Those who lived and died to the performance of their weapon endlessly tinkered with it to gain an extra edge in battle. The increase of a weapon's lethality was a common modification made by such individuals, and was often accomplished through the installation of an augmented spin barrel.[1]
Using an updated and streamlined galven-pattern heavy-duty static pulse adapter, augmented spin barrels increased both the damage output and armor penetration of blaster rifles and heavy blaster rifles. The trade-off for extra stopping power consequently decreased the effectiveness of the blaster's frame and barrel, which led to an increase in maintenance and downtime. The cost of an augmented spin barrel was 1,750 credits.[1]
