Where to obtain Personal Weapons

I'd ignore almost all the tabs on the galaxy map except one, check for dictatorships these are always the places I find selling battle weapons / personal weapons / combat stabilizers the rest is pure luck it seems.

Same mission. Same problem.

Something is severely broken with the trade data, as I have tried to use the following methods of locating Personal Weapons, all without success:

  • Tried showing the trade lines for Personal Weapons in the Galaxy Map. Used the 'Show Trade Data Available' trick to buy data for everything around. One system showed as exporting. Went there, to both stations (34,000 l/s apart). No Personal Weapons. They DID have Battle Weapons though - but (of course) did not show these as trade lines if I selected them on the Galaxy Map, even though I had physically visited the system.
  • Tried showing Anarchy systems on the Galaxy map and visited each one in the area (about 8). None of them had Personal Weapons, although some of them showed them on the market because there was a demand for them.
  • Tried visiting the systems that showed as 'Imported from' on the various stations that had Personal Weapons in demand on their markets. None of them had Personal Weapons.
  • As the 'Produced by' entry for Personal Weapons shows as "High Tech, Industrial, Military", tried visiting those at random. Nothing.

Fortunately, even though I already had the mission, I kept being offered it again at the stations I was visiting (sometimes bugs work for you i guess), so with 6 minutes remaining, I took the mission again and abandoned the one that was about to expire. I'm now on a 240 LY round trip to LHS 3447, as it seems that the only reliable way of finding a station that has them is by hearing about it from a player that's actually seen them in a system.

In all, a fairly major bugs seeing how important the sourcing of commodities is for the gamplay experience. It's a good job that the game is still in Beta, as these sort of fundamental problems would be very disappointing for a live game.

Same mission, same problem, tried same solutions for hours yesterday.
Very frustrating, particular for newbies I guess who maybe don't know about the other broken content yet and expecting a map working after they figured out all the filter stuff etc.

btw. I frequently have to clear the C:\Users\___\AppData\Local\Frontier Developments\Elite Dangerous\Options\Player folder (maybe just custom.misc would be enough) to get the map-filters and options working at all

sorry for my english

I went to the Fan Platform in the APAM NAPAT system, as it's a High Tech station which doesn't prohibit Person Weapons, and which lists Personal Weapons as the #1 export. They don't even show up at the commodity market there, though. Starting to think I'll fail this mission.

You can get them at
Beldarkri(OneZ)


Supply is low but you are normally asked for 5 or less for the mission.

OneZ's security is pretty relaxed too (Scanned and on you go Cmdr).
