All weapons, including pistols, come in four basic categories: crafted weapons, looted weapons, quest rewards and galactic civil war weapons.
Crafted Weapons: Crafted weapons are hand made or manufactured by munitions traders. You can purchase them throughout the galaxy by visiting the bazaar. Some are for sale on the open market, but to find the really excellent hardware click the tab that says "vendor search." You can search vendors throughout the galaxy and find shops with a wide range of available goods as long as you are willing to travel to buy them.
Each type of crafted weapon varies based on the quality of the item and any modifiers that might be built into the weapon by the crafter. Also, they currently have one socket for item upgrades created through reverse engineering.
Looted Weapons: There are two types of looted weapons. Basic looted weapons are weapons that have been recovered from your enemies after combat and they can be found throughout the galaxy. Special looted weapons are recovered from specific enemies. Special looted weapons are mostly found on Kashyyyk and Mustafar.
Quest Weapons: Quest weapons are special weapons that are rewarded for completing a specific quest.
Galactic Civil War Weapons: Galactic civil war weapons can be purchased from faction recruiters based on points you have scored in the war. If you've scored enough points, you can visit a faction recruiter and there will be a new dialogue box available so you can purchase these new weapons.
