It's a reproduction - it may be the same one his father carried during his time as Peter Moreau, which would make it one of the Kanzaki Weapon Works models from the mid-2300s. (If not, it was made in Valhalla, which is probably a little closer on the authenticity scale, as their gun works likely employ actual Germans from the early 1900s.)

Heh. I have a C96 Bolo that doesn't work. Maybe I should do that with it. Although just to be contrary, I'd probably try to make it a stock DL44 instead of the Han Solo version. :)
