The ASE 's E-33 Assault Rifle was a powerful and effective handheld weapon from the time after the Fall.

Characteristics
The E-33 was a powerful, highly modifiable, interchangable and accurate assault rifle that packed a heavy punch ithout the lose of accuracy which made it a prime choice for various governments after the Fall with the having to stamp out local pirate and slaver forces.

Each of these assault rifles hold three settings: blaster setting, which is normal able to reach up to 300 meters per shot without the loss of accuracy. Stun setting which is able to disable a person for a few hours at the most with an impressive range of 50-125 meters much longer than normal stun weapons can reach. Finally there is a sniper/slugthrower setting able to reach a distance of 1000 meters with pinpoint accuracy using slugthrowers instead of Tibanna gas to power it making it undetectable until its too late to respond.

History
During the Fall, many successful corporations such as BlasTech and Merr-Sonn Munitions that had thrived during the time of GFFA and the Fel Empire had collapsed as with no economy many beings throughout the galaxy began using more primitive weapons such as swords and other bladed weaponry. This caused the consumer demand for blasters to go down and with the loss of profits the two industries could no longer keep their doors open as only the wealthy or well connected to gain one at that the time. Some elements of these corporations went on to join and supply pirate groups, slavers even ex-Imperial Warlords and former GFFA commanders only making the situation worse as it was.

After the formation of the ASE, the need for blasters had become apparent and so instead of trying a method of trying to replicate the older technology that was found ancient battlefields, the government took it in another direction creating a newer and more powerful weapon to use for its military forces. The result became the E-33 assault rifle with its impressive range and interchangeable functions making it an expectionally powerful weapon as it becomes a symbol of the ASE.
