So farI have only sold high DPS Advanced Laser Rifles (and a ton of them). Last night I did start experimenting with a low SAC version. I managed to get the SAC down to 91 while maintaining the same max damage as the high DPS variant. This was without the benefit of a pre-CU stock. I also fiddled with some E11 Mark II carbines and wound up with a SAC of 80.
If people want low SAC, I'll give 'em low sac.

True I could charge more, but I have enough creds to not ever sell another weapon again and never run out of money, so I am just charging what I think isn't a crazy amount, but also not cheap either.
I'm only just starting off with my WS business. and I'm still just a 10 point smith(cant afford the stupid price of tapes) but i'm selling T-21's and adv laser rifles, with 944 max dmg and 85SAC for 15-30k
I have messed around with some other weapons, what i have been doing is crafting a weapon and then keeping themon my combat toon. when i'm grouped i'll offer the weapon to somebody as a kind of trial. if they like it. I'll make more of the same. if they dont like it, I ask why and try to improve it. I craft all my weapons by hand and in most cases i also craft the scope and stock by hand. when crafting anything i use bespin port and try to get the best results possible.

My best seller is the Advanced Laser Rifle. I cap SAC at 82, max out damage (hitting 1002 now) and haveScopes put into them, boosting the accuracy to +13 (we've never had good Chromium Aluminum on Radiant).
I also sell -28.18% SAC Reduction Powerups, which bring the SAC down to an incredible 58. With just Blob Candy, you can fire specials constantly. The accuracy penalty on the powerups I have gotten down to -9. I just don't have enough ideal chem to bring the accuracy penalty lower. I also sell tons of same principle Elite Carbines with 73 SAC and close to 900 max damage, again +13 Accuracy. Pistols I can get down to 75 SAC, if I am lucky, because they cannot benefit from a weapon stock.
The Advanced Laser Rifles and Elite Carbines can be used by any CLR 54+ Char and work great with dabblers in BH and Pistoleer trees. They are also my most requested Krayt weapon to custom make. Pistols sell less, melee weapons, ugh, I pity them. They really need to do something to improve the accuracy, a new component? Even -29.56% SAC Melee powerups don't sell too well for me. I did get my Blaster Fists down to 65 SAC however. I also feel Commando weapons should recieve either a powerup or lower the assembly calculation for SAC. A 100 SAC cap on Plasma Flame Throwers is just not acceptable.
Odd note, my previous -28% SAC Ranged powerups reduced the SAC of 82 SAC rifles to 59... weird how .18% less makes a difference?
