Doh! Ok, what weapons are sought after that I can make

Laser Rifles (good for anyone as there is no skill requirement and it does heat damage)

High Capacity Scatters (best BH and Pistoleer weapon)

DL44 (the xt version or whatever its called, strong weapon with lower skill requirement)

Czerka Dart Carbine (new carbine, think for BH skill, sells well more because its new and the damage isnt all that great)

Alliance Needle Carbine (same as above, sells because its new and not because it is uber)

Stun Batons (Best Fencer weapon aside from loot stuff, does electric damage and stronger than any of the swords or gaffi sticks)

VKs and Two handed swords (not real sure why these still sell as the stats are in the basement now, but I guess melee professions need something in thier hand)

Aliance Disruptor or Death Hammer Pistols (another new addition that doesnt have much use aside from decoration)

Republic Blaster (opposite of the scatter, it does energy and acid damage and stats are quite good)

Commando Weapons. (this is hard to say because Ive been selling pre-nerfs, which in some cases is better than what can be crafted. also, people are begining to give up on commando due to no specials for that combat class)

E11 Mark II (probably the best carbine weapon in the craftable line)

Basically, anything new will sell just because its new and people will buy it for show more than anything.

the main pistols are the HC scatter, and the DL44 XT. IMO the DL44 XT is the best craftable pistol. You typically get a higher DPS and a lower SAC on the DL44's however you do get a much higher wound % on HC scatters though I have no idea how important wound is atm.
