That is pretty good for doing the missionsyou can pull off the terminal. For hunting bigger mobs, I'd say try to find a speed sliced Republic Blaster. I have a ~60-214 dmg 1.9 speed (Sliced from 2.4) Mod. Rep. Blaster. It is nice.

/agree A good speed sliced Republic...doesnt have to be modified republic...and also get a DX2 so you can go after some mobs who have high energy resistance. Most people at your level hunt on dantooine. Get buffed and a good set of high kinetic ubese and you can hunt most things on dantooine earn some money and xp to boot.

It depends if you use your scout you don't have to get a buff to do missions

The three weapons that every pistoleer swears by are the DX2, Repubic, and the FWG5. These are the meat and bones of pistoleer with there three different resists you can take out most things. The republic tends tohave the highest damagebut its energy, also there are some issues with certification with the republic... there are 4 kinds of them... dont get the modified at novice and I havent had the cert. problems yet that some people have run into.
There is also the genosian sonic blaster but that is expensive right now and realy only neccessary in pvp.. even though most creatures are vulnerable to stun.
Also if you are just going to stay on tatooine you are going to have a long road of getting xp. As someone already said buffs and dantooine are your friend.

For lower level stuff, and to pull off status change attacks I still use the same DL44 pistol I've had since I was a marksman. 11/29/11 are some mighty low ham figures, +41 range at ideal is sweet,and 1k hits on average with last ditch work just fine as far as I'm concerned. Butthere are times when my beloved DL44 (or your scout for that matter) just won't get it done.The pistols I have in my inventory at all times would be that DL44 (scout is largely the same sort of thing), a republic with a +0 range mod at all ranges (custom made), a DX2, a Tangle pistol sliced for damage (I refuse to pay what a good geo goes for, but that would be the ideal)and an FWG5. Before I picked up TK, I also carried a Striker for anything that was vulnerable to kenetic damage. The damage outputs are so low on our weapons that special attacks used and matching the correct damage type to the right enemy count for more than a couple more points of damage on a single weapon type.

I'm looking for an oddly made pistol i have no idea if it can be made with the stats i'm wanting, so i'm asking the experts here if it's possible.
pistol : any model
Min Dam : upper 200's low 300's
Max Dam : above the min by 10 or better (i'll settle for any above the min)
Speed: 20 (no exp on speed at all)
HAM: N/A (no exp on HAM at all)
(damage sliced, damage stats can be sliced or unsliced i can always pray it gets a damage slice. i know some of you have smugglers thatyou work with)
Speed and HAM are not a concern to me, neither is damage type but i would like to manage something close in a variety of damage types.
Am i looking for a phantom pistol or is it a possible reality?

Not sure what the minimum damage is on a DE-10, but that is probably your best bet
Otherwise you could use a +21 minimum damage yellow cube and a high velocity pistol barrel in a Geonosian pistol then get a 35% damage slice to get 200 minimum.
Not sure if legendary/exceptional barrels increase minimum damage or not, but that would be another possibility

Also, speed experimentation goes hand in hand with damage experimentation. You can't do one without the other in the current system. I would concur that the best way to do what you're asking for is a DE-10. Or a Krayted RB, perhaps.
