In the wikia entry for RT-97C Heavy Blaster it says:
The RT-97C outclasses the DLT-19 Heavy Blaster in every way, making
it a critical upgrade for any players that prefer using rapid-fire
heavy blasters as their primary weapon.
But that seems kind of crazy, every other blaster in the game has a situation where its useful. Why would the game developers and staff spend the time making a model and coding it, only for it to be the one useless blaster in the game?
I notice that some blasters lose accuracy the faster they are fired, but that stat isn't recorded anywhere. Perhaps the DLT-19 maintains more accuracy while firing?
Is the DLT-19 Heavy Blaster totally inferior to the RT-97C?
Once someone unlocks the RT-97C is there any game advantage to using the DLT-19?

Why choose the DLT-19 over the RT-97C?, Reddit - Battlefront subreddit
I own the game but I really don't play that much, but I can say that the RT-97C is better than the DLT-19 in terms of rapid fire when shooting.
But DLT-19 is a good starter blaster.
