I sort of imagine that sales of BlasCaps spike every time they make contact with a planet in a similar development stage to Earth at the time of First Contact, that has tons and tons of slugthrowers floating around. Such a planet would rush to adopt energy weapon platforms (raising the local prices sky-high) and BlasCaps would be an attractive proposition to those who have a shit-ton of AK-47 equivalents lying around, can't really afford to convert to the E-11 or DC-15 en masse, but would like to remain somehow competitive anyway. Answer: BlasCaps.
