Newcomer / Intro Where to buy non-lethal-weapons near LHS 3447 ?

OK .. now its the third time Feds ask me to buy Non-Lethal-Weapons for my Promotional quest and for the third time I can not find any :(

How am I supposed to find a station that sells Non-Lethal-Weapons if not by chance?
In Galaxy view I already checked Weapons for the trade routes and visited 2 systems which appear to be selling weapons to LHS 3447 ... only to learn on arrival that I can not buy any weapons at all from stations within these systems !?

1.) What am I doing wrong?
and what is MORE:
2.) In which system/station near LHS 3447 will I be able to buy non-lethal-weapons? I still got one hour left :)
 
Go to the galaxy map. turn off all the weaponns except non-leathal ammo. Now find a star with mltiple arrows branching out from it. if it only has 1 arrow alot of times they might not be there, but if there are like 3 arrows going outwards from it then you can usually find what you're looking for there. Also you can look at the system map for that system (next to the Navigation icon in galaxy map) and click on each station to see if it sells non lethal. sometimes it wont be listed on there but it almost always sells it if there are 3 arrows going out of it.

try looking vertically for stars as well as laterally too and use the mouse scroll button to zoom out a tad bit for a better view of where its being sold
 
all they ever ask for are non lethals, i wish there was some way we could store cargo either in hanger or a parked ship, but to answer, i think the closest is gd 219, but its not exactly next door, i've not been bothering, but i might go grab a load then pop round the stations back home waiting for the fed missions till ive used them up
 
I got mine from GD-219 yesterday, there is also an LHS system close by that sells them, I just searched high tech economy and checked their exports in the system map. Round trip took maybe 15 minutes.
 
From the LHS 3447 System you have one option if i recall it correctly

GD 219 (McKee Ring) About 16 Ly from LHS 3447, So you will need to upgrade your Frame Shift Drive, even then you may need to plot a jump to GD 219 via Ephesus.

Be advised though Ephesus is just a jump through point, and with no allegiance is more than likely to have CMDR pirates waiting for you to bring them sweet gifts of cargo.

Also if you have spare cargo space on your way back as i cant remember exactly how many weapons it asks you for, you can run Reactive Armour or Consumer Technology back to most stations in LHS 3447, but Yaping will pay about 200 creds more, giving about 830 creds upwards profit per unit.

May also be worth keeping in mind as a cargo run, but there are at least 5 trade runs in LHS 3447 that earn you sometimes more than that run...
 
If you jump to a system and after docking find they don't have what you are looking for, I use the commodities view to see where that station is importing from, which hasn't failed me yet. Assuming the commodity is listed.
 
the time limit is really harsh given the 100,000 Ls haul back to the station. after missing it by a few mins several times i grabbed 6 and waited for the next mission to pop up. though i seem to remember getting 20 to 25 mins for my run, so maybe you'll be just fine with 1 hr :)
 
I have this mission but can't find gd219 in my map, has a Jedi wiped it from the memory banks? Could someone give me another name of a close one so I can try to fine tune a little?
