'''Las-Locks''' are a type of [[Laser Weapon]] used by some [[Imperial]] forces early in their history. An archaic alternative to the [[Lascarbine]], it was used by many regiments of the [[Imperial Army]] during the [[Great Crusade]] and [[Horus Heresy]]. These weapons favored stopping power over a rapid rate of fire.{{Fn|1}}Sometimes known as “blaze guns” or “las-muskets”, no two of these cobbled together and ill-made weapons are ever quite the same. Often found in the hands of desperate and poorly equipped insurgents or renegades, las-locks are usually scratch built or modifications of antique or damagedlas rifles brought back into service by scav-workshops and heretek forges. Laslocks’s jury-rigged capacitors are temperamental things at best, but still potent, firing a more powerful discharge than that of a standard lasgun.{{Fn|3}}
