This rifle was made available to spacers around 1 ABY, during the Bestine Political Elections between Sean Trenwell and Victor Visalis for Mayor of Bestine. The position was decided by voting spacers, and during the occasions where Visalis was successful, his followers were able to assist him by killing a Tusken Executioner, hidden in the caves beneath Fort Tusken. Upon returning the Tusken's head to Victor, spacers were rewarded with this rare rifle for their loyalty and assistance.
The Lithitanium rifle was featured in the MMORPG Star Wars Galaxies, prior to its closure on December 15, 2011. It was received as past of the Bestine Political Election quest arc, when the player voted for Victor Visalis and he was elected. Upon winning the election, he gave the player a quest to kill a Tusken Executioner beneath Fort Tusken. Returning the Tusken's head to Victor rewarded the player with the Lithitanium Rifle.
