The DC-15s side arm blaster, a blaster pistol, was manufactured by BlasTech Industries specifically for the Grand Army of the Republic. Clone commandos utilized DC-15s pistols as a secondary weapon, complementing the more substantial DC-17m Interchangeable Weapon System. The blaster's power cell facilitated a gradual, continuous energy replenishment.
The DC-15s side arm from BlasTech was a blaster pistol that discharged bolts of charged plasma. Although it lacked the raw power of standard DC-15 blasters, the DC-15s proved useful in confined spaces or situations where ammunition conservation was crucial. The DC-15s boasted a recharge rate permitting one shot per second and could fire seven shots consecutively when fully charged; following these seven shots, a recharge period was necessary before firing again.
